Somewhat new to the board

I have been lurking on the board for a while now, and thought I would do the proper introduction thing.
I have been into rods and bikes all my life and always find myself involved a project.
Currently I am building a 28 Ford tudor sedan.
Any ideas, pics or parts connections would be great.
Glad to be here!

 

Welcome! I've got a 29 Sedan, hoping to get rollin on it this summer. Traditional style, unchopped, 32 frame.

 

Get your catchers mitt out, because there will be shit thrown your way. welcome aboard(and don't take anything personally)

 

Welcome.

It sounds like you are gathering parts and pieces for a project similar to one of miine. Mine is so far back on the back burner that If I am lucky I'll get to drive it to my last day of official work in about five years.
About the best I can offer is that when you see a thread that has info that will be usefull to your project suscribe to it. If you see a picture that shows something that helps with the project save it to your computer. Same with the links for parts. Make a folder in your bookmarks for vendors who sell stuff that you are interested in.
As far as parts from others on here, check the classifieds often as sometimes there are some deals from guys who are willing to pass something on to someone else who needs it.

Other than that come up with a master plan for the whole car and try to stay with it as close as possible.
By that I mean'
Fenders/no fenders
Chopped/not chopped
Frame, what and what mods
Suspension front and rear
Stance
Engine and trans.

Other things like paint, wheel and tire combo and interior and dash gages just have to fit in with the theme of the car.

I've got two sheds full of parts that I bought because I *might* use them on my truck and then didn't for some reason or other mainly because I didn't have a master plan from the beginning. They will eventually get used, sold or traded but the money spent or trading power used at the time could have been better spent.

This time my master plan is 90% in place and I am going to try an stick to it without loosing focus and getting my feet wet in the middle of the stream once again.
