thanks for the welcome.

Here is what I am working on. I've only had it about a month.

It's a Late 1931 model A coupe with a 3 inch chop, no channel, original A frame, 36 front axle, 40 rear, 40 juice brakes, 1941 Flathead, 16 inch wires, BLC headlights, etc. I'm going for a 1940-1950 build period






in the garage





I got the body from a guy that had it listed funny on craigslist. Basically It was make an offer, I was the only one to come take a look. I loaded it up for really cheap. Then I found a original 31 frame with a clear vin. Then the axles, then the wheels. basically I am piecing it together out of old parts as I don't want to use much new parts.. The previous owner chopped it about 20 years ago. He didn't brace the body, The top isn't even tacked on yet. so basically I have a lot of mistakes to repair.

here is what I want it to look like when done. except maybe with the A grill and shiny black paint. think words like evil and sinister.
