    Hell, I'd settle for a close up of one of those door hinges.

    One of the door hinges. Sorry I didn't post more info. I know this thing doesn't fall in the traditional hot rod category,so I was a little hesitant to post anything at all. I do love the traditional cars dearly as I grew up around chopped 32,33,34 coupes and steelies,five spokes, and Halibrands on Highboys or full fendered cars. I wanted to build an aluminum car but keep the stuff that still looked like a Model A

    The hairpins are 1'' .250 wall tubing with a .250 gusset welded inside. I saw some radius rods on a car in the Indy Speedway museum that were done like that and never got over them. 20160714_132108 (1).jpg
