A-V8 roadster mock up done, what do ya think?

DON'T temp me
See you tonight?

 

Pretty cool Chris!

 

Fun to see it progress, Keep us updated! Never get sick of seeing Model "A" builds,Even over and over again Great job!

 

Span-tacular!

 

Only one thing about it I don't like and I'm afraid that I probably don't have enough money to change that.

Great looking car friend. Looks like you have all your ducks in a row.

 

Looks great.

 

Lookin great so far keep it up!!

 

Looks trick to me!

 

looks just right!

 

Yeah, thats the stock seat. I lowered the seat riser and shoved the seat back into the trunk area. It has some decent room now No choice on color yet, but it will be dark.

 

So did you decide on which steering wheel you gonna run?

 

Now that's Some John Boy Walton **** right there , I love It

think it looks awesome.

 

I second the comment on painting it all rather than the frame/drive-train only and waiting on the body. Finish it and get working on the 5 window.

 

Cl***ic

 

HAHA! No matter what shape the body's in, it takes a lot of time and a lot of money to make an old clapt out Model A ready to paint. I just wanna drive this thing right now, got too much else going on. So we'll see.

Oh yeah, sold the 5W yesterday...

 

Yeah it seems Chris is going to cut the roof off his Model a Coupe soon he's taking a liking to the roofless rods as of late.

I am really happy for you dude and I know this roadster as well as the "other one" will be awesome!!!

Now about that '32 Seat......

 

thanks chris, that helps alot. are the '32 front axles the same as '42-'48? what rear spring did you use?

 

No, this is a 1932 "heavy" axle, way different then a later one. Rear spring is Model T

 

Wouldn't change a thing, great job brother.

 

thanks again, ive been reading all the threads on this thing, its great! perfect stance. one of the best ive seen yet!
