    Boy, there are some nice model A Tudor projects happening out there and great to see guys are still posting their pic's.
    Nice to see some of the chassis work that is going under them as well.
    I just took delivery of my 32 repro rails for my next tudor project, going to be a little so getting started but I hope to get some pic's out soon.

    Here is my '28. Started with a nice rust-free body and added everything else new as I went along.

    Here's how it sets today. Just need to finish plumbing, wiring, floors and hardware.

    Nice work Jeff, love the extra safety added to the door latches!
    I hope that panhard bar sits level when the body weight is on.

    Ok, here's my two heaps. I will hopefully start the build up this winter if I can get the garage sale crap out of the garage!

    Here's my '28 that I've been plugging away at for the last seven-plus years! Started with a bare '30 frame. It has an "A" rearend with 3:54's, '39 top loader with later gears including 16/28 main/cluster, and an 8BA with 59A front bits (dist., pumps, generator and double sheave pulley). Am using '84 Fiero front seats and a '92 Mazda MPV seat for the rear. F-1 steering box and '39-'41 style juice brakes all around. Built my own exhaust system which includes headers and "A" torque tubes behind the Cherry Bombs. Still in the mockup stage. Regards, Dave.

    Hey Chris that is a real sweet looking vehicle or should I say hot rod.
    Is that a 30 visor on it?
     
  21. Bit of an update on mine (posted back on page 1). Found a good frame, and have z'ed the rear 5", and made up a trans mount for the 39 box I now have. I've got the motor and trans mounted in the frame. Just found a new Chassis Engineering 4" dropped beam at a great price, also a pair of 39 spindles and steering arms made for a dropped axle. Sorry, the fecking camera appears to have taken a dump and I'm kind of loathe to buy another. I figure the $$$ are better spent on parts.

    Where are you guys running your gas tanks and how many gallons can you carry?
    Mine is under the floor between the diff and tranny with a cut out for the drive shaft.
    I can carry 23 1/2 gallons.

    Answer to a gas tank PM::confused:
    The 1st pic shows the drive shaft cut out and you can see in the lower part of the pic a piece of fuel hose I installed to allow the fuel level to balance on both sides of the cut out.
    The 2nd pic shows the tank to your left and how it clears the 4 bar, there is a lot to be said for parallel 4 bar set ups as the triangular style takes up all the useable tank space.:rolleyes:
