Good to hear from you. Thanks but have to keep the scoop, it is functional on mine....lol! Yep you definitely need to keep one for yourself. I...
Back at the Model A this weekend. We kind of ran out of time putting the engine back together on the first round but found a whole in everyone...
I am going to put a single roll bar hoop in it like the original units with the down bar into the pass compartment (which is already there). And...

At the big swap meet here in Springfield a week or so ago I snagged this dash for the Model A. It was super cool and every gauge still had...
Here is the first episode of Fastest Car in the County that I spoke about earlier. We want to find the old stories about fast cars and try to...
Oh we will definitely need a push. But that will be exciting for Dad and Zoe to get to do.
To be honest though, it may run out pretty good. I mean we have the 5 speed in it and if we flip the Halibrand gears??? If we can get it...
I heard and certainly an option. I bought the new rule book so just kind of running through the different classes. I am not sure which one to...
AND so as usual if you have ever followed one of my builds, here is where it goes wacky. Scope Creep some people call it. For me however it is...

I have always wanted to tear into a flathead as has Dad so we brought the car to my work shop where we would at least be able to walk around it...

No he has been around a while. That is one Bad Ass car. That video was sort of on my dream quest board for the Cobra. But just like him we are...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] Pretty damn cool!
We also measured, cut down to fit and welded the rear cross member. More on that later. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] We did a quick sand on the front...
Well I decided today if we are going to mock this thing up for the party there are a couple of things we need to get solid right quick. Number...
I am sort of interested to know what is up with front axle in the photo with hub mounted fenders. Very East Coast Rodder there Salty...what did...
Thanks. Good try Salty. That could have earned you another few square feet of gravel right? Lol
FYI - I am on the hunt for a few parts. A stock 30-31 Firewall and maybe a trunk lid. I ordered the rear inner fender wells yesterday new, so...
It is pretty cool. That was for either left or right hand drive. That is how far off set the engine was from center to give the driver some...
