Starting to build my 29 Model A coupe and not sure which is the better way to go on the frame, either swept front or z'd front. What are the benefits of choosing one over the other?
Well done sweep looks better but it is about proportions. Just a touch too much and the car will look broken. A Sweep is for graceful and tasteful lowering. A front z can be hidden in the toe board and appear that the car is channeled. This will easily get you the radical lowering look of slammed and stomped on or anything less lowered. Doan spencer did a front z right at the front crossmember. Its mostly hidden from view by the wheel ***embly and solid black paint.
