PR coupe update

The baddest car on the island is nearly done !
I sent Manuel a note asking if he had drove it yet

First run complete   Check!

That was Fun Check!

A neck breaker  Check! 

 

I like the reply !  I can't imagine the response his coupe will get in Puerto Rico

Has it the upholstery shop now for some soft stuff.

 

FE Ford is big, and strong. Dual fours and a 4 speed !

bare the interior looks good, with new threads it will be stellar

 

 

Joe's truck , one more time !

Got the flat cam issue fixed.
Put on some killer valve covers and a bitchin' Riley air filter

(hey send me pictures of your project and be famous like Joe ! )

Stupid

Or just plain dumb

moonlighting

Helping my pal John with Chris' roadster.
Cool looking magazine built car.
Taking it apart to put together for real.
Having fun spending a couple hours in his shop.

hot rod works open drive, and push in axles.
need to set the lash and pattern...

Compare, stock Model A , swept front chassis

Same truck in the pictures.
Sold off the stocker chassis, and replaced with a roller chassis from me.
Added a nice 327 SBC and T350
Not chopped, not channeled
Gets exhaust soon, will be driving all around Texas then

stock(ish) ride height

non running 4 banger not much fun

9" Ford rear

big and littles

left the old paint/primer

compare to above, the rear tire sits perfect here

wheels and engine old Ford green

caps and rings finish it off

Dale's coupe

My old friend Dale is building this coupe.
What do y'all think of it ?
Attention to detail is Dale's passion I'd say

Olds V8

The RPU is for sale...

nice profile shot, nose up like a old competition coupe

rear window is the classic mail slot

emerging from the lab

wheels and tires

make the car
Nick swapped tires and wheels (and other stuff) on his coupe.
I think the blackwalls and wires really make the coupe look mean.

Hey customers ! Check your boxes, you may have the golden ticket !

No not really.
Some how I made a mistake ( unbelievable but true)
I sent someone two Vega steering boxes.
And you don't need two for my chassis' 
Will go back thru shipping records, and see if I can figure it out.
But if you got two and only paid for one, please let me know.
Thanks !

cool roadster

Chris brought his roadster over to John's shop.
This one is pretty extreme. It is LOW
Will take more and better pictures soon..
