Projects 1928 Ford hotrod

Yesterday i tacked this frame up and mocked up the body and grill. the grill is a 1932 Ford grill and the cowl is a 1928 Ford cowl, i have a 1936 front end, and a banjo rear. any suggestions about motor or trans? should this be a drag car or cruzer? Richard 562-338-4419

 

i think i need a junk rear model a crossmember and spring.

 

long way to go.....what are your chassis plans?

 

my chassis plan is to make it out of 2" x 4" x .120 thick square tubing.

 

here are a couple of ideas, woody phaeton drawing and a closed woody drawing.

 

That would be cool.

 

Most wooden projects turn out boxy and look unlike the original factory built models. It takes a master carpenter/car builder to pull it off. Please understand I'm not being critical of anyone, just making a statement. Good luck with your build!

 

your correct "343w" it takes a master carpenter to build the wood body. there are a couple master carpenters i know of. Richard
