Sweet '28-29 tudor!!!

What sedan body is that? Nash? Durant? Windshield posts look Cadillac or LaSalle but doors are different, and the rear peep window really throws me off.

It's a '30-31 Model A 4 door, chopped 7.5 inches
Heres the front end mockup just to throw you off a little more

why on earth after all the hard work, and you're putting a steering rack on it? And what are you planning on mounting at the ends of the bones since you went suicide spring setup?

TOMMY RAINS · Jul 21, 2010

i think the wheel base is around 117 or 118 not sure i have slept since we measured it last time. jojo we can flat put you in a new chassis . jimmy is just not into wanting a buggy at this time. however when we do build a new one it will be completelly unique and one off. super light and lots of rpm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just true ratrod fashion = throw it together with what you have laying around the shop. It was a running roller when I sold it. It would crank but still needed driveshaft, rear axle setup & tons of other stuff to be driveable. It took me forever to get all four 2bbl carbs in sync & running good. I spent alot of hours on the CNC mill making the adapter from 5.0 FI intake to the 4-2 adapters
