Elrod Model A Coupe Thrash - Flathead V8 time

Nice seeing you again, car looked great! We looked for you guys at the party last night but never ran into ya.

 

Great seeing you guys also. We went and ate dinner and relaxed away from the crowd for a bit and then went back at the end of the party and hung out for a while. Sorry we missed you.

UPDATE:

A couple shots of the coupe at the Austin Speed Shop after party.

 

I missed it at LSRR....I was hoping to see it....

 

One more....

 

Saw it on the Grass on Saturday, Kick ass car... was great to see it in Person..

Reading about builds like this and then seeing the result made the 3,000 Mile round trip more than worth it..

 

Saw the car but missed you, Glad you made it!!!!

 

Cool Build, Looks like a kick in the pants! How's that boost feel?

 

Now thats a hot rod!

 

Elrod...Your car turned out great! Good to see you at the Roundup! Now... tune it up & burn some tires down!

 

One of my favorites from the show.

 

Wow! 54Bomb. That is a beautiful picture! Thanks for posting that!

 

No problem, by the way that flathead sounds pretty mean, heard it leave the speed shop Saturday night, too cool!

 

Congrats again Jason AND Eric. I can't imagine doing what you guys did. What an accomplishment. Yall earned the featured lot! The car is awesome and I think an inspiration to many hot rodders.

If anyone missed seeing the car or meeting these two guys you missed out. These are some of the nicest guys in hot rodding.

 

nice project

 

Bee-uteee-ful ! Some Packard "purist" , After see's This..........Will be under Doctors Care fer some time (ha !).........
Great Post/ Build, Thanks

Thanks so much guys. Today I was in a haze. Not working on the car. Just boring normal life. It was really strange. I have a few additional pictures I'll post of the rest of the build if I get some time. Not sure if it is worth it now that people saw the car but might be nice to have a collection of photos all in one place.

 

I vote post the pics

 

Whats the deal with the question mark plaque? Its incredibly awesome. is it a new THEM plaque?
Great fabrication anyway, and congrats for making it to the RU

 

love the drive video. nice touch with the automatic choke.

 

That is not the new THEM plaque.

That is the name of the car now. "The Question Mark Coupe."

I did a little write up on how it came to be.

I noticed that plaque at the party.. I really dig it. It suits the car well.

Hey Mart. Long time fan of your posts! Thanks for checking it out!

 

Love it! Wish I had fenders for mine!

 

Great coupe. With the super charger just tops it off.

Thanks for sharing , whats the next step ? apart from drive the wheels off it..

 

Tune and drive this summer and then start work on the body for paint and then interior.

 

Love
It

Haha! Thanks cactus1. Did a little more tuning last night and took it out to lunch today to a patio restaurant with a bunch of new leathers. Lots of crazy stares. Ha.

 

the coupe is awesome man.....I was following the thrash for Austin.

 

Wow! Cool Pics Cory. I think I remember seeing you come by taking those pictures while I was there talking with the guys from Hatfield's. Sorry we didn't get to talk.

Thanks for posting those!
