Kept that quiet Kevan. Can't wait to see the finished job, must be hard to improve perfection though huh?
Considering its a racecar Pete I think you'd best have the ali heads off my motor. can't have you getting weighted down and wallowing going into...
I'm one of the fortunate few to see this car in person. What you guys will get to see through the course of the build up is the amount of thought...
Falcon, Reading through this thread, your last description of what you're wanting to do now makes sense. A friend of mine is building a turtle...
What's to hate? You're taking a complete hack job of a chopped Merc and doing it properly. I can't believe the state of your roof and that...
Congratulations on the new record, great achievement indeed. Totally loving the photographs what camera was used or if digital what type of effect...
Roadster belongs to Nutrocker on here, there are some photos of it at the previous Hayride events http://www.hotrodhayride.com/ or you can find...
Threads like this will keep me coming back time and time again. True artistry and talent, outstanding work Kev, a joy to watch. Custom '40 Merc,...
Grest stuff John, got to be something special to share a road trip like this with your son. As for the hiccups on the way, they say that life's...
aesthetics are one thing but it's worth checking on the function too. I have to admire you're dedication, that body is a huge project just on...
Very informative thread indeed, I wasn't willing to part with my dropped axle and it now looks like I don't have to. Cheers
Here's a short clip I took of a Monarch GP Curtis in the pits at Prescott hill climb. http://youtu.be/AXE-DjLWqMA
Loving the initial artwork and design for the project. Can't fault the choice of power plant either and the fact you're looking to use an...
What exactly did the inspector say they require? Only asking because I can't see any diffence with the rumble well mounted tank and a stock A one....
Exactly how I run it. ...and as for killing the motor or stalling on rail road crossings(!??) just use some common sense as to where you place things
All you have to is hide the key ignition someplace and have the push button on the dash. I also run a hidden battery cut off switchand fuel pump...
That's Mart's roadster 'Ol Rusty
The last photo showing the hood sides on and the 600x16 on the front is testament to the fact this roadster has nailed the look IMHO. Have faith...
I think the car looks fantastic. Can't see why some are against the 32 grill , I know some may think it's over done, but as you pointed out a lot...
All makes sense, the later A grill and '32 being taller than the '28-'29. Most of the early A roadsters i see pictures of are sitting on '32...
So I'd really be looking at either sectioning the grill shell or lowering and changing the rad to suit or modifying the front crossmember?
I currently have a hiboy '31 AV8 coupe and have an opportunity to buy a steel '28-'29 roadster body with Halcock style screen. I've been trawling...
Couple of questions 1) What are peoples opinions on the reproduced SCOT blowers (I'm assuming this isn't an original)? 2) What are Pixie Stix?
managed to set light to 3 pairs of pants at 2.30am! Fire alarm in motel went off, room filled with smoke and all whilst I sat on the toilet! [IMG]
Cheers Dave, we both had a cracking time at the drags. It was cool just to hang out and sup some cold beers with you and let the saturday...

Insane..............love it. Good luck mate
I reckon it should be high on the agenda for a club run out Deano, start saving. Thanks to everyone for posting some superb photos, world class...
I get the impression this is going to be a seriously detailed and tidy truck by the time you're finished. Nice one!
Fantastic fenderless, do you have any photos of your FED? We've got a couple here in the UK and a very healthy love affair with anything powered...
