    I love the flatty man!!!

    Of course I am partial to them ( look at my avatar) especially in Model A coupes.

    Comming along real nice and I have to say the you folks (Iron Lords) know how to keep things traditional in the dirty south.

    I like it alot!!

    fabrication and installation of 37 ford decklid handles for door handles. In my opinion the best looking handle ford ever had and used it one year on the decklid.

    The original photos look kinda brown. It reminded me of a coupe I once had. It was chopped but not channelled - otherwise very similar. When you're out in that thing you couldn't get more attention if you were on fire.

    stewart warner wings gauges , most gauges from auto zone are not but a little over an inch thick , I guess because of accuracy these are over two inches thick therefore I had to recess the spot in the tank two inches , thrill thrill , joy joy
