Yeah -- I'm thinking 40 Ford fenders? What do you think? If I do the body black gloss and the fenders in flat gold leaf... it might make the car look.... Smaller? I dunno.

Congrats on the build> Is that an alum body (looks like it in the pic)? I just realized you don't own a PT car, or does the Mustang have cup holders??:unibrow:

All steel -- American Speed '33. I love the way the drop top disappears.
Charley made me a deal - when I can run an entire weekend without spinning he'll have the Briz make me a custom console for the Mutt.

LOL, that was good.
Looks good Greg. What chassis is going under it?
|
The chassis is all custom Brizio. He has the side rails done the way he wants them for the stance of the car etc... then they jig 'em up and finish 'em.

I appreciate it Jay -- not sure who cuts the wheels but that choice has already been made.

Oh that's pretty liberal!!! More like 10% build 95% smack talking, and Greg's multiple quotes :D
Last night @ 9:34pm, I had post# 6, I signed on this morning only find this thread had ballooned by an additional 41 posts covering 5 pages!!! LMAO :lol: :willy: :lol: :willy: :rofl:
Greg's threads are like a bunch of guys hanging around the beer fridge in the garage......lots of bench racing and one-upmanship :cheers:

That's EXACTLY the way I think about this site... a bunch of guys hangin' in the shed all jumping each others shizz. Friendly honest banter. No flames. Just good fun. Glad you enjoy it as much as I do.

If the pin drive knock offs are like Tom Gloys and you put skinny tires on it.......:thumbsup:

Ah ha! When you said 5" axle -- I was thinking at the back of the car and couldn't for the life of me figure what that was! Yes 5" drop.
The car is Traditional WITH attitude. We'll see if we can pull it off.
You hit the pin drive right on the head. Just not doing the inside brake covers. Skinny bigs and littles... and a Tribute to an absolutely perfect wheel.
If you take Rodders Journal -- the front cover this issue has the paint nailed. 1940 Ford Washington blue - or PPG Barcelona Blue. We'll paint out a test and see. |
