1929 Pontiac Coupe "Basket Case"

[Peter]

Looking to start a build using the parts I have on hand. Hoping to emulate corpro's success with his "A" Basket Case build elsewhere here.

This is what I am starting with. Mostly parts from a 1929 or 1930 pontiac coupe. I got all the parts as extra's with a 1925 Studebaker hardtop duplex coupe. No frame, no cowl, no trunk.... nada. Since it has no roof I will likely make it into a roadster. Starting on the frame soon.

Atleast the parts you got look pretty solid. Lots have been done with less to work with.

Good luck..Looks like fun.

There are some cool shapes in those parts. [dr

No cowl isn't necessarily a bad thing. I'd use it as an excuse to build a 90's boyd coddington style rat....hood sides run all the way back to the doors.

A rusted-up 80's billet street rod would be cool. ...and the billet junk should be cheap a the swap meets. [S [P [S

Looks like a good start...

I think the build you are referring to is Smallfoots A... he did the most with the least I have ever seen...

Cowels are fairly easy to find.. in fact i have one in the attic.. from my 36 Donor truck...

Good luck.. we will be watching...
