Projects bp1971 '29 roadster build

Minor update... I started running the wiring in the roadster. I have got it all separated out and run to appropriate spots. Making it all look clean and hidden as possible is the time consuming part. Choosing a battery has been tricky, but I think that I have decided on an Odessey pc680. Will post pictures later.

 

Nice work, I like it! I am building a 31 roadster on 32 rails..... I'm taking notes...

 

Minor update: Dash is now installed and the gauges, ignition switch, and light switch are now fully wired...The end is near.



Also mocked up my new air cleaner from O'brien Truckers. It will painted black with a polished top and front.

 

Looking good

 

Thanks Fuzzy Knight.

 

BEAUTIFUL work! Keep the pic's flowing...

 

Very, very cool. You nailed it dude. Can't wait to see the end result!

 

Thanks Guys. For the most part it is turning out how I envisioned it.

 

The Paint looks great! Really liking the black on black.

 

Wow bp. Your hot rod roadster is lookin' top notch.

 

Thanks 30TudorSedan and Rickybop. The prep before the paint almost killed me, but it was worth it. I think the black on black is a cool look too.

 

Today may be the day that I start the beast... My dad and I will finish up the spark plug wires, add some gas and with some luck she will start and all will be good.

 

You hit the nail right on the head, looks awesome. have fun starting her up

 

The old girl roared to life today. Now, on to finishing up the front end stuff and she will be ready for some interior.

 

Addition of the radiator and grille shell with the insert really makes it look like a car. I still need to fit the hood and hood sides and the front will be done.

 

Looking really nice. The black on black suits the build.

This is time well spent! Ultra nice roadster!
You know we'll want a video of when you fire it up for the 1st time!

 

I fit the hood and and hood sides yesterday. Getting the latches to work correctly was a pain in the ***...Just say'n.

 

very nice!

Nice looking roadster..

 

Awesome, I love it with the hood and no headlights or windshield.

 

I think it looks cool without the headlights and windshield too. Unfortunately, California requires both of those little items

 

Mocked up the windshield frame one last time before sending it out for gl***...

 

Man, this it turning out nice --- looks great!!

 

Thanks Malcolm. Kind words from a man with an awesome '29 roadster in the works.

 

Ok, the '29 is very close. I have been working away trying to sort out some issues...like brakes. I think I have determined that I need a new booster. Anyway, the car is mostly together now, I I hope to get it to upholstery soon.

 

Looks real nice!

 

Really nice!!!

 

Damn that thing is sweet! What color interior again?
