P.S.: I am looking for a glove box clock and handle. Email me at vintage.metal@yahoo.com if you can help me out.

28-29 Sports Coupe Project

I finally got rid of my "roach" 56 Mercury (a deal gone bad), and made room for my 28-29 Sports coupe that will be turned into a Cabriolet. I have been waiting on getting my chassis over from a buddies house and friday, at my suprise, it rolled up on a trailer and got dropped off.I felt like a kid in a candy store. I have had the body for some time but had been gathering parts to start this build on the right foot. With the Shoebox welded up solid, running good, nothing much is left but body work and glass. I thought I would break up the minotny of the same routine in the garage with something new, so here she is.

Not much to tell, she will be as traditional as I can keep it (except the magnum or superbell dropped axle ). It will have a small kick up on the frame in the rear (Tardell Style) powered by a Banger motor, dual 97's, 39 trans, Stock rear and 16" wires, 7.00 rear tires, 5.00 motorcyle fronts. The windshield is basically like you see it (maybe an inch higher).I have a buddy helping me out, got the subframe and cowl sand blasted.So much is in the planning stages that I want to do, but Illl keep them details to myself, until I can develp pictures after the work is completed.

Ill post picts of the progress as I go along.

Banger Speed Parts!

Check out my latest score. An early Zephyr 2x2 intake for my banger motor.

This will be my first set of 97's that I have ever own. Im very excited to be in the process of building this motor. I dont think you can get any more traditional with a banger...other than using a Flathead V8.

The banger motor is in my Model A Sports Coupe that im currently building.

Some plans for the Sports Coupe are; Chopped windshield and door frames. Soft top. Banger motor w/ T-5 conversion. Model A rear w/ 3.54 gears. Hairpins front and rear.

Ill post progress as I proceed.

Enjoy.
