I use eBay all the time and buy most of my parts from there, just scored a front windshield frame for my 38 chevrolet truck.

I wish that one was real, it is a photoshop. Several people have similar builds to it but none look as good as that one would.

Very cool build, hope you can get back on it soon.

Thanks mike, we are in va and don't tend to get a whole lot of snow in our area. We are not in the mountains. We made it out to the garage today, had to work on another car for a bit but about mid day got going on the coupe. Worked out perfect because we were waiting on the engine mounts to...

Thanks for all the kind words, that just motivates you more. Getting ready to head back over there now

We made it out to the garage again today, my dad finished cleaning up the rear axle and I made the other nose piece for the frame. After that we set the chassis under the car and centered it all up and tack welded two different size tubing to hold it in place but still let us remove it if we...

Thanks bob, and yea you don't see many of the chevy's.

Ok we made it out in the garage for a few hours today. We got the frame all welded up, my dad worked on cleaning up the axle where the brackets were cut off and I started making the nose pieces for the chassis. Bent some flat bar

It's my roommates dog so I don't pay any bills for him but he is my little buddy and you couldn't ask for a better dog. His name is moto and he is a chiweenie

Anyone have anymore info or build thread on this one

One more

Ok, we have been cutting away on this 2x4. Both rails have been swept now and today we set the front crossmember up. I don't have too many good pics showing the sweep but here are a couple. Also we are hoping to have the frame built this coming up week minus four link.

Thanks endicott, your sedan is coming along great as well. One thing for sure, if you build a early chevy you get to fo about double the work with all the wood lol.

Well today we curved the other framerail and it actually matched up good with the first one. This is our first time for doing the framerails like that, so like anything you learn more as you go. My dad also got his dropped axle setup with a reversed eye spring and drag link. Last but not least...

Best thing to do is just shim them, common practice on model a's.

Thanks earthman, yea we have enough projects to keep us busy but seems like we always want more even though the ones we have are not done yet lol. And yes I am fortunate to be able to do the projects with my dad, get to learn a lot .

We have been getting some stuff done, this is our first attemp at trimg to make the 2x4 rails look like model a style. Still have to finish off the nose and make another one just like it lol. Once that's done we will set the crossmember and plan a sweep on them

Looking killer, can't wait to see it with the tires mounted.

Luckily I am fortunate to live across the street from my uncle. He was into racing and built a nice garage to work in. It has heat,a/c, air compressor etc. I have a two car detatched but we basically use it as a catch all since i need to run new electrical. It keeps all the lawn mowers, bikes...

Amazing skills, definitely start a new build thread. You do some awesome work
