Welcome fellow Texan. Thats a cool start for a hotrod. And rare to boot. Hey, do you know Leon Ekery at Dyer auto Salvage? He's a cool guy to know when looking for parts or just hanging with. Tell Him Keith Fox from Lubbock Said Hi.

 

i've delt with Leon on more than one occasion, but haven't been down that ways for some time.

 

just one more. this is the car that i am considering quartering to fit on a model a setup.almost seems a shame ..don't it?

 

So stretch the A frame to fit the es***. Not the other way around. Plus the A needs boxed anyway. So do ALL the work on the frame. If you havent considered it, it needs chopped. Ask Leon about his 34 coupe sometime. ITS BAD. Keith

 

the a frame is boxed and set up for small block chevy and th400.the rear end will be the 31 spline 56"axle flange to flange with detroit locker i have in the garage.

 

Thanks for posting more pics. I never realized that Es*** coupes had suicide doors.

 

howdy, welcome to the hamb

 

I think we will have our own army soon.

 

just looking thru the tech section and might be ditching the four link for a single leaf kicked up in the rear. rods are truly *****en my friends.

 

Hi there and welcome to another Es*** nut. My buddy Paul is on here as 29SX276. It stands for 29 Es*** 276 cube flatmotor. He is building a coupe on half A half Es*** rails. Go to search and put in his username. You should come up with some pics of his car. Here is one showing the A frame on his coupe. It has since been channelled a bit and will be chopped and I just gave him some 15" pickup wheels to replace his 16's. Pat.

 

that's a beaut. kinda the flavor that keeps things interesting.heres my door and floor.
