Has anyone here used the 32 style Model A frames from Brookville? How about the the one from KIWI Konnection? I am with-in easy driving distance from Brookville so that would be a big savings in shipping. Anyone know the cost to ship a frame from the left coast to Michigan? moose
Just about anything Brookville seems to be good quality..... ....my experience: misc. stuff from them and looking at all their displays....
You're not going to get much better quality than Brookville. If you can pick it up to avoid shipping charges, that would cinch the deal for me.
The nice deal about Kiwi Connection is that I'll bet ya a nickle that if ya called Sqeek he'd give ya the strait scoop on both his and Brookville's rails with no BS. If they're good he'll tell ya. I can tell ya from experience that Sqeeks rails are excellent quality, his jig is on the money, and very very few know more about them than him.
ive got a kiwi konnection ch***is... V8 is right, he will give you the straight dope on both brands. he is also very knowledgable and is more than happy to explain the finer points of hot rod building. ...and he has a funny accent
The Brookville has a Model A friendly flat top. If you like the way the original style 32 rails swoop up in front and want that for your ride Brookville is not for you. Otherwise???
TIM!!!!! How in the heck are ya!!! How's the wife and kid (I remember their names but not sure you'd want me to post them!!) Is that frame for a father/daughter project???? How have you been??? Good I hope!! The people you meet on the HAMB!!!!!
I think Brookville frames are all four bar, front and rear. Not real traditional. But if that's what you're looking for. . .
The Brookville frames don't run uphill from abt the front of the doors and forward, they are flat so that you don't have to alter the cowl. This will totally ruin the look of the car. Be sure to compare cars with both frames side by side before you decide.
