well here are a few pix of my dad's hot rods and my bike. my dad and i are in the process of building a new one (even though his aren't done yet :P). it's a '28 ford model A pickup. it's the same as the grey one in the pix. it has 18" eagle wheels, 8.8 posi mustang rear end, 350 small block chevy, HEIDT superride IFS with polished stainless control arms and polished aluminum coil overs, some of the sheet metal is new and some is old and has to be re worked. the frame is one off custom built by my dad and i (i'm a certified welder). it's slow going so far, it looks like a frame with a bunch of parts laying in the shop to be frank lol. but i'll try to get some pix of the progress...if you guys are interested, i realize this isn't the model a forum the paint scheme we are thinking about would be charcoal grey on the skirts, fenders and running boards and silver (to match the rims) on the body. any ideas or comments are always welcome.

nice lookin rides bro

 

thanx

 

cool cars!!

 

Very nice. I like the Todor myself. Heres a pic of my girlfriends 29 Ford Woodie. She inherited it from here Dad. It sucks though, she won't let me wrench on it. I would love to drop a V8 in there with a 9 rear and some fat tires. But she is so sentimental, every scratch and dent has a story. But hey, it's completly orginal and runs great.

That truck is a great project good luck.

man old hot rods are awesome. I love looking at them. There are acouple in this area with some choped tops that look crazy.

 

HotRods & Muscle Carsare awesome! I have a 69 Camaro SS396 that need a restoration. Had a 69 Small block also but sold it and have regretted it since. The SS is in my garage covered with all my junk over it. All it needs is gas, a good battery and tranny fluid (leaks out over time)to fire up and drive.

 

Cool pic's joe. Looks like some fun toys!

 

Ratkillerthat woody rocks! don'tsee many of those around anymore. speedracer138, i had a buddy that had a 69 camaro SS, but i think hehad a 350 with a lumpy cam in it. sounded mint andwas pretty quick. i really like thatera of cars. if i was gonna build a car to keep (the pickup we're presently buildingis going up for sale when it's done, or maybe before) would be an early 70's challenger or cuda...hopefully with a little 340 in her. someday lol...i got 5 yrs to pay off my new green toy hoedogg, aszrael1266 and OMalley912 we really do like fartin around with these old cars, but NOTHING is as fun as rippin around on my ninja...well almost nothing lol.
