lets see your favorite model-A s

Hers 1 of mine Alan has raced this same car for 46 years

 

Wow... I'm speechless here

 

Thats a cool looking mock up!!!!!

 

I just wanted to be the 1000th post.......... Cool thread........ Damn, miss by one......

 

It is very cool looking..... but dangerous. I'm gonna be devil's advocate here.... the scrub line is higher than the bottom of the frame. If the unlikely event of blowing two tires on the same side were to occur, that frame is gonna be sitting on the road, digging in and spinning the car round like a top. Just my opinion. It would be illegal here in New Zealand.

 

Kind of partial to mine!

 

You're right about the scrub line. But then again it probably doesn't have seatbelts, passenger airbags, or crumple zones.

Most states here also have scrub line laws, and it wouldn't pass those either. After lowering every car I've ever owned I'm not always a fan of a slammed hot rod, but this car's profile is just stunning! More pictures please!

 

I would be too Tracer, bitchin!

 

Jeffery thanks for the info. This model A is about as close to perfect for me.

 

This is my all-time favorite coupe. And when I hope to build mine soon, this is really close to what I want. Really, one of the only things I'd change is that I'd put a flathead V8 in it.

That's Rolf's coupe. You can see how he built it in the tech section of the hamb

 

Mark's AV8 with a little photoshop lowering.

 

Anyone have any info. on this car? How much do you think it is chopped?

 

i have a *new* favorite....



build thread to follow...

 

Nice. Looks like a great start!

 

WE need more back to the top

 

the two biggest inspirations for my build are bass,s and the grenade

 

X2 on the Grenade, also the Chrisman Coupe

 

She is mine, and just about done, and fun to drive

 

I kinda like the one I built...for some reason.

 

this is mine

 

Ok, I'll play. I'm really partial to my 29.




It's headed for a little minor metal work and a fresh paint job Sunday, she be gone for a couple weeks.

 

I'd say 3" to 3 1/2"

 

Well I love Model A's and have had several but my favorite is this 30 sedan . Built it from a bone stock driver a few years back. Kept the sheet metal and body,sold off the rest to a restorer. Ended up a built 327 4 speed ,Ford 9 inch. Sold it a year ago and have been kicking myself since.

 

this one for now

 

my progression

 

this is one i put together last winter. racking up a lot of miles and a blast to drive

 

i think mine is in pretty good

 

I think this one is kinda cool....not sure why

 

this is the one that got my juices flowing.... mr fords is bad ass also...
