Projects 1928 Chevy project

Well with my 51 ford about rdy to drive and beign in car show season down here in Arizona, i picked up another project... 1928 coupe... well roadster is what it will be since i dont have the roof but i have all most everything else for the body.
its.. intimidating but hey i want to get it back together and save it.
so far i know im missing the roof*will make a roadster instead" 1 door, dash, and the deck lid is trash.
i will be on the hunt for a frame or might look into just building my own soon so i can start piecing the body back together!

 

Looks like a bit of a puzzle

 

huh, I had the bottom part of it....

Sold it to someone in Tucson in 2016.

 

Thats Funny, cause the guy i got this from lives in Tucson, he build a blue Roadster out of a pile of parts and these where what was left over

 

right! i have take calling it the puzzle car because my daughter said the same thing

 

I never had any body parts besides the cowl, hood, and a fender.

 

Any idea's on frame building for the 28 chevy body?

 

That will be an interesting build.

 

I am very fond of a speedster build based on 1928 Chev bones. I unfortunately had to sell my entire 1928 stash due to health and old age. Still have a rolling chassis just in case. If you want a little history and perspective, get a copy of Outlaw Sprint Car Racer about the life and times of John Gerber and all he did with wild bits and pieces in the barnstorming days. Have fun

 

right, will be quite the learning experience

 

ill check that out, thank you

 

There’s the carcass of a 29 f/s

Can’t say for sure if the 28/29 body is the same but might be worth looking into if it is.

 

Model A frame wouldn't be a bad start.

 

Well... that was easier then expected... 28 ish frame aquired... will be starting work on this once I get the 51 shoebox running
