Hot Rods Curious: Who all's got Model A's in the works?

here is a pic of my 30 sedan. Chopped 3" channelled 5-6". Running a 383 stroker motor with dual holleys. almost done. i am getting really anxious to burn off the new white walls.

 

ok---a few more pics--plus one of my 37 coupe

 

Finally got around to snapping some pics to add to this thread.

Under construction is a '31 coupe. It has been apart since 1982. My original plan was to build a Pro-Street race type car with BIG tires under the stock rear fenders. no hinges smoothed for less drag. Since then with marriage,a kid, moving and such it sat in a barn feeling unloved.

But since finding the HAMB I have seen the light and have changed directions and brought the old girl out of storage.

Plans call for a 32 style chassis hiboy. Might run a deuce shell or painted A time will tell. Here are pictures as it came out of storage and the beginnings of the frame.....

 

There seems to be a lot of new A builds going on, so btt! Let's see what ya got!

 

'28 RPU project. I feel like I'm on a treadmill, all work and no time to assemble make Devin a frustrated boy. I don't have any pics as my single car garage has become a parts receptical. One day.......

 

here is mine but every time it gets cold and bad weather comes (expecting 6to 10 inches of snow tonight ) i lose interest

 

I hope to be driving this again in the next couple of months and Im going to try to have it in paint by detroit next year. mel

Little bit of progress sense the last time I posted.

 

Very nice. Would like to see finished photos.

Ive got a 1931 coupe, with an inserted Riley overhead set up, dual stromberg 81's, hooked to a 39 Ford tranny. I am going backwards for the early fourbanger look. Will be finished and on the road this summer.

 

Boones,
I noticed your engine has the finned valve covers w/o breathers. I want to run the same kind. Will the breather in the oil fill tube suffice?
Thanks, John
