| Started with a pretty bare Ford Model A Frame |
I started this project about 3 years ago with the intention of taking parts I already had, putting them to together and making a rolling project that I could sell and make some coin off.
 |
| I made the rear section out of new 2x4 box tubing. I stepped it up to get the car lower and extended it rearward to use a spring behind banjo rear differential. |
I also needed something to occupy my mind that winter, so I rounded everything up and brought it to my garage in October 2009.

| 1949 Mercury 8CM Flathead |
I had an old Ford farm truck that had this Mercury Flathead V8 in it and it still spun over so I yanked it out and started tearing it down.

| 1936-39 Ford Wide Five Wheels and Brake Drums |
I used part of the Model A frame that I cut off to make a rear cross brace and then used c channel from another frame section to make this rear spring perch.
Here is the 1929 Whippet body as I bought it. I sold it on ebay and I think the guy who bought it died and nobody came to pick it up. It is a Sport Coupe, it used to have a leather top like a convertible.
