Trimmed a little more on the A tonight to get it to set on the frame better. Couldn't resist snapping a couple shots.
Just for rollers right now. I kind of like the big and little look though. I have a full set of wires so It will probably end up with 7:50 X 16 on back and 6:00 X 16s on front. Got a long way to go before that becomes an issue.lol
Don't know, I blow hot and cold on that issue. I'm kind of liking it tall at the moment. I am trying not to use any major components newer than mid-fifties on it. Want it to be a bit of a time machine. If I do chop it it will be mild, I split the top of my head open last night crawling out the door. Maybe I should raise the top and inch or two.lol GV
Looking good GV!! I would not chop it until years down the road. Get it on the road & just drive it not chopped. When you chop it (Years) you'll have a brand new look. Put me down on the "I want a ride list." Happy Trails, Mick
Chop it 1" and drive everybody nuts when they try to figure it out. Nice part about the A's is, you can do a mild chop, set the roof on and look at it for a while before welding. Looks good so far. Interesting how we mock up our cars just to see how the look. I think it's the artist in our souls. Driven by curiosity we are....
Looks good George. Seeing your posts keeps me working on mine. It'll be ready for HAMB Drags 06,right? Well off to the shop.
Id personally put ALL efforts into making it run before any asthetics at all. then you can enjoy it while you do mods. You able to use those rims all the way around on it? Root can give you the number of a powder coater in the City and you could get those done while working on other stuff.
Yeah Dirk, I am planning on using the '35 wires on both ends. May be "Krylon Koating" though. 'bout all I can afford.
