Wished I had known about a year 1/2 ago, before they crushed the old cars out in the yard in Pee Wee Valley. He had a wrecked 56 with one very good chrome rim over lens, I was looking for number 2, when he said he was closing. Made a mental note to go back in 2 weeks when the weather was better. It was too late. all the cars were gone.

 

Nice build, subscribed

Couple updates on the 53' currently working on my frame & suspension couple shots I pushed the body on the rotisserie out and snapped a few pics it's been a good while since that car has seen day light!

 

More progress thanks to Nick @ Hub caps hot rod design

 

This is Nicks wicked 2 link kit combined with bag mounts that offer 7 degrees + or - of pinion angle, track locator, & all hardware fully tig welded heavy wall tubing if interested contact him or me and I'll get you in touch with him!

 

Got the bag mounts and bridge done!

 

Still need to cut the axle down but I'm in the middle of moving my house/garage to a new location and not much getting done on the 53' till I get settled in the new place that'll be sometime in May

 

Not a lot of progress hope i dont get bashed too bad for the new powerplant sorry to the traditionalist for this but i am wanting to go EFI for many great reasons... if anyone is interested in the combo please feel free to ask thanks Tadd

 

I know i havent posted on this build for almost a year but im still alive and still got the car but have moved into a new home just minutes away from old location Im now located in Taylorsville/Mt.washington,Ky & still in Bullit Co.! I have more land and more space to do what ever makes me happy! Have spent a lot of time trying to get the garage set up to do work. Aquired a 29 ford coupe with a flatty pretty cool ride did some work on it to get it going and then sold it! so now im back at it on the 53' and still collecting parts for my 33' ford 2 door sedan!

 

Dude, really nice build! Great workmanship! Oh, and I dig the avatar!
