Thanks glassman! It's on Duece Factory rails that have been bobbed just after the rear axle. Model As are tricky to get to sit that low so the body mods required can be intimidating, but it's worth it.

Steering and brakes installed. Finished all of the lines. I found these brake lines from Summit for only 20 bucks a piece. They are super nice and full swivel fittings are standard. Moving onto the dash this weekend and the radiator support.

The white base was worth it to say the least. Here it is in the booth.





Once home, we split it off the chassis an disassembled the components. The frame is headed to powder and the rear end to a rebuild in the morning. Gotta get all the suspension ordered ASAP!



I love the red looks awesome

Ah you guys are the best! I'm gonna hang the radiator support and the fenderwells this weekend. That should allow me to plumb the AC and the cooling system.

I see you went 18's and 19's, but I didn't find the widths on them.

Did you narrow the rear end any?
