i really like that orange one. pm me about the y-block. i might do some horse trading with you if you are interested.
Bill, what a cool little car, as is, but could definitely see a 292, 4 spd, steelies, a small drop and juice brakes. Oh and keep the Fenders!
Ive got a coupe, and a Tudor. Then fenders are on the Tudor and off of the coupe. Fenders are nice. It is a tight fit for the Y block because of clearance but that is what is going in my coupe in the end.
With fenders on is ok, but even better is no fenders on a 32 frame with a nice Flatty....I've always wanted one done that way.
Very nice car.... I think I have seen pics of it before I like the way it sits just needs thinner tires and some ford wheels Feel free to post more pics Was the top brown? I am looking for a 80s chevy mini van for a new roof Thanks Bill
Looks great. I vote for keeping the fenders and dropping it (alot). I'd keep the banger too. Glad to hear your boys dig it. I've got boys that are 5 and 3. I know what you mean by having to have room for everyone, guess that's why I drive a tudor too.
Bill, I can picture it with the fenders OFF....and a Super Charged Flatty under the hood...(you know where you can get help with the engine)......and a nice Burgundy paint job....... I will do some brainwashing next time I see the boys!!! Ha Ha! <!-- end of AOLMsgPart_1_3eb5e084-e435-4c8b-945b-7d532ecf756d -->
Yes the Fenders will stay and I will lower it as much as I can to sit down on 550s up front and 750s in the rear It needs a hair cut
Bill, Nice find, looks like you've been busy. I stopped by Micky Ds a couple of times to see if you'd be there. I need to stop by some time to check out the sedan.
Look what the cat dragged in. I think I only when to micky Ds 3 or 4 times this summer Fri. Nights just didn't work out for me this year I spent a lot of Sat. Nights in Bristol Much longer and nicer ride See ya soon
Up date I hate up draft carbs so I dug out my Winfield Carb and intake rebuilt the distributor replaced the distributor drive gear and dropped the pan to clean and check every thing. After some more cleaning and gaskets it's time to tune in that carb
Don't spend too much time. It works for me It's low It's chopped And you put color on the rims I can't ask for more Thanks again
Found some old reg papers under the back seat. With a pound or two of mice shit It would be real cool to find the old plate 744EA New plains FTF I picked up a nice set of boxed 32 rails.
Sweet ride man! I've got a 31 Tudor waiting for some attention after I finish my 31 roadster. I'm pretty partial to running the fenders with no chop but you have to be the one to make that decision. Either way enjoy it and your family. That,to me, is what hot rodding is all about.
Hey Brent and Joe... I for got I had this car Change of plain Some prick here on the HAMB ( no names) Made me buy some nice 32 rails he had hanging out in his shop. So now it off with the fenders and start over. The plain was to drive it with the banger until I made a new model A frame out of 2x4 tube but now I need the body to build the frame out of the 32 rails. That will be a all new thing for me so it will take some time. I still don't have a 100% plain I keep Changing my mind on the axle and spring set up front and back Changing
Definately keep the fenders and bring her ride height down =family of 4 happy and look good while doing it!
