Well Christmas has come and gone, so I got back on the Roadster.
Wired and fired,broke the motor in, no leaks, sounds fantastic with the shorty mufflers I built and stuffed in the headers.
Just got to install the windsheild , top, and leather hood belts yet. Gonna get pinstriped next week, then off to "Mangus" for the trim work.
Enjoy the pics.
Don

Beautiful car. Not quite as much shine as some of your other ones. Could it be you have been hanging out with a bunch of Rat Rodders?

It came out super nice.
 
looks killer. are those straps aviation inspired? i ll tell you it would look sick with a roof in matching leather. (not that is doesnt look great already!) just the contrast would be....=)

Probably would, but leather don't fold up too good.:rolleyes:
I'll stick with German Hartz cloth + leather don't like to get wet and this is a driver !!!!
 
finally made the trip over to Don's house/shop, that deuce looks way mo better in person. the top and windscreen really make it different than most I see round. And it sounds even better than it looks:eek: Job well done Don:cool: maybe you can incorporate a little rust somewhere in the next one:eek::eek: btw, saw my first Von Dutch pinstriped trash can there, probably worth as much as the deuce,lol:eek:
