I am looking at this 30 Ford Sedan as a first hot rod purchase. Nice build, 401 nailhead, 700R4 ******, Ford 9" rear, basically all new parts and interior. My only reservation is the ******* body. Any opinions?
depends on the weather where you are and how much driv'n ya want to do.... A tall top on such a channeled car would look funny IMO.... Good luck.
I would p*** on it because you don't like the ******* part. It would not be easy to modify the cowl/winshield posts to make a top. I also agree that because it is channeled, the top may need to be too tall. It may be a hard car to sell if you really dislike it after a while.
It's got a nice stance, and looks like great family fun. It's up to you if you want something like that.
There are plenty of cars out there & if you're questioning a major part of it (that can't be easily corrected) , then move on........
I think it looks pretty good except for the windshield. If you could do something closer to the stock open car setup, I think the car would be p***able. If the price was right (because of the configuration), I'd be all over it, especially with a nailhead.
Too bad the windshield area wasn't done so well. It's a likeable enough car but for that...well, and those seats...well...nevermind.
My personal opinion, there isnt much to like. It looks like a Streetrod, and not a very good one. Except for the Nailhead. It would be nice to save that for another car...
I would p***, if you settle for something you sorta like you will never be happy with the car. Find something that really trips your trigger.
