Coming along nicely, dmw. Similar to the way I build. Are you going to have a fabric roof?

He's rockin' the "Nuttin Special"!
Love the simplicity of that machine DMW56!
Looks sweet. I’m going for the same kind of look with my scratch built. Just curious. What is the dimension from the dash to the back of the cab? I’m contemplating stretching my cab a little but not sure how close I am to a real model A cab as it is

Model A body dimensions are readily available on the internet. Here's an example of a page with them: https://www.mafca.com/tqa_b_measurements.html

Dash to back of cab in mine is 34.75". But it's a mix of parts from two different cabs.

Put some bed liner in the bed.
Made a nerf bar between the headlight stands.

Taking it all apart for the final time so I can put it back together the last time.

Oops! I hit the wrong button and don't know how to delete. I've had two '31 A pickups and love them.

Notched the frame at the front crossmember for some more spring clearance. Inserted one more leaf spring too.

Drilled some holes in the frame to run the gas line through.

Putting it back together for the final time. Waiting for windshield glass. Then a bunch of little stuff to do.
