Hot Rods 29 RPU- "Street/Strip" B/SR Build - Marty Strode

Hmmm. Somewhere I have a blank CTA timing tag. I think you know which “C”…

 

That would fit my roadster pickup project?

 

It's all yours -- saves the shipping cost. Give me a ring from somebody we both know.

 

She's a real beauty Marty!

 

That moon tank mount and guard look amazing. Best moon tank install I have seen

 

Thanks John and Bill, I will be seeing you both this Summer !

 

With the construction pretty well done on my '29, I thought I might as well get it out in the natural light, so I could look at it one more time from all angles. I am getting ready to tear it apart for finish welding on the chassis, and off to Powdercoat. I plan to electroless nickel plate the ladder bars, front hairpins and other under car pieces. Also, Karl Peterson is going to paint some of the body parts including the hood and cowl, to match the old paint. It's down to cam selection for the 331 Chevy. Still lots to do, but I want to run it this Summer !

 

Man that’s good!

 

Marty
Any idea when your RPU will be ready to hit the dragstrip?
You may have seen this array of parts for my roadster, I'm really a fan of how electroless nickel looks, I hand prepped mine with Scotchbrite before sending it to the plater, has a soft satin finish.

 

Doug, open wheel oval guys have been using it for years, I do like the look ! As far as running it, I am banking on July. I would like to take it and the Banana to Bakersfield in October to run !

 

I like the front tank rack!

 

So did Marlo !
