Hello, Picking up where left off 31 coupe project

I really like it - sweet trade

 

rolling artwork...

 

gonna start ordering up the brake parts. Any thoughts on the CNC pedal/resivor assembly like the car pictured above. We used them in our racetrucks and had good luck with them for what they were figure that with a custom longer pedal assembly for leverage should suffice though not very time correct brakes are one thing i'd like to be sound

 

That looks freakin' PERFECT!!!!

 

will they handle the added weight and power? NO!! but keep the wheels anyway, they look bitchin.

 

thanks for ae replies and concern on the wheels they will be changed at least to a 16 inch spoked wheel with some firestones

as for the pedal assembly i have figured id just go with something like this

 

I dig it as-is......the bent frame, the model A wheels, the molded steering box mount, headlight mounts...somebody spent a lot of time on that stuff. The stude motor just caps it off. I love it. I wouldn't want to try to keep up with the rust issues, driving a bare-metal car but hey, it's your time and WD-40.
How does it drive? Any wheel wobble or shimmy?

 

I'll take the wheels and tires off your hands for my T roadster if your serious about getting rid of them...PM me.

 

that mother fucker is BAD!!!!

 

Very nice,keep us posted.

 

does anyone have any info on the baremetal coupe pictured on page 2? or the owners name on here? I have a few questions for him

 

Bass here in Dallas has an all bare metal coupe you might want to pm him. And by the way nice coupe.

 

wow those wheels look great hope they hold up

 

I'm curious of the wheel n tire sizes on his car not a fan of the current set up

 

The stance on your "A" is killer.

 

I dig everything about the car; stance, wheels and the molded engine and steering box mounts. Real clean looking mill too...I wanna HEAR those zoomies!!!

 

looks great, nice ride.....

 

Wheels are cool but not my taste I plan to sell them and by some 16 inch steelies and run some firestones if anyone has a newer set in black with the caps and the size tires I want I'm willing to trade looking for a slightly bigger tire up front as well similar to the set up on the page before pm if interested prefer local pickups only

 

The Car pictured before was built by the guys at Pinkee's hot rods you could call them and find out what they used... I would say there 16's with 720's in the rear and 5.60 in front..but I could be wrong..

I really like your car..the wheels will make a huge difference,,and it will be allot safer.

 

That car is freaking sweet. I am using the same frame for my A build. I won't angle it as far but I like it! If you get new wheels PM me, I'd love to buy those 19s from you!!!

 

Agreed my main concern is safety hate to have a blow out or wheel fall apart I plan on doing alote of longer trips to el mirage and what not thanks alot for your help it's appreciated

 

Anyone interested in taking the 32 kicked frame off my hands things top notch just not my style gonna talk with kiwi connection about building a more traditional highboy frame

pm if interested!

 

ding ding ding we have a winner.....this is exactly the direction I want to go with the coupe....full hood clean on 32 rails.... do 32 hoods line up with the 31 coupe body? or vise vera 32 grill line up with the 31 full hood? by far my favorite coupe. I sold my rims and tires today took my 16 inch by 4.5 steelies to olympic powdercoating and am ordering up 750/16 firestone gumdips and 550/16 firestone dirt grooved tires from Coker tommorrow. the frame is for sale and have talked to duane at Kiwi Konnection about gettin a av8 from ordered up...like any of my hobbies I cant keep them the same as when i got them

 

I really like the car in general but that broken back look harkens back to the Show Ts of the 60s-70s which definitely ain't where this piece comes from or before that. The stock A wheels aren't a part of the 50s-60s era either.
The car is searching for an "era" and that era is the 2000s.

 

yo it's me rodrigo the guy that built the car if you really wanna get rid of the frame let me know i would love to have it back maybe i could trade you some work for it same with the wheels. let me know.

 

finally bought rear tires for the car....next is strippin it down and getting the frame back to stock rake....we have a jig table and he measurements shouldnt be to bad at all

 

I love your car but the steelies just look wrong on it, maybe some 16 inch wires would look better? Was diggin the model a wheels. Just my opinion of course.

 

The trans is a stock Stude. overdrive three speed with the side forks removed and an old model Jeep top plate added. It's a direct bolt on after the other forks are removed.

i thought the car was tits the way you had it the first time ...just my 2 cents get some 16 and 17 inch wires on it ...and keep the rake of the body ...
