hey T REX...WOW fabulas. i can't believe any1 would say shit about Ur rims. the rule of law is. if U like it, say so. if not keep Ur damned BIG MOUTH shut. thats 1 of the finest rods i have ever seen, HONESTLY! your new friend in texas...call me POP...or the old FART!
Here is a picture of the same style of belly pan only on a five window, the part still needed a little more metal finishing when this was taken. the idea with the pan and most of the other parts on any car is to make them look like they belong. I think it worked out. Thanks for all the great comments and feedback I have been lurking on here for too long i thought i should share some of the stuff we get to work on. www.realhotrods.com Rex Rogers Custom Auto Loveland Colorado
Um....like yeah.... ahhh..... whew.....yeah......hhhmmmm..... Sorry, took a while to get the words. God Damn that is a beautiful car. Great job.
I could leave the lights off the car if the they wern't needed but a lot of good ideas are out there. I know a few people that would give up their first born for those wheels if they are real.. I will try to load up some more build pics in the morn
I just want the chance to finish the one posted in bare metal a lot of time is in that car and now she needs to be out on the road. Rex
I was wondering that, also. Might you proviide us a hint on the overall diameters of the tires and rim sizes? It appears the fronts are just a tad smaller than the rears, just enough to look pretty sporty but not enough to look like all the other deuces you see (and my build, too, admitedly). Thanx, Gary PS... how much did you have to adjust the front cross member heights / axle drops in the front for this to work out? Trade secret?
I still need to check what the tire size is the rims are 18" Halibrand. I want to say the front is kicked up 3" i will double check. with a 4" drop axle and the rails are pinched to fit inside the deuces shell. the rear of the rails have also been narrowed up some to drop the rear of the car with out changeing the factory floor. Both cars have the same wheel set up but each frame is different as far as the style. a 32 steering box is used. both flathead power cars and the Duval windshield are cast up locally bodys the two nicest original 32 roadster i have seen.
