I'v got 4 that I have found and narrowed it down to the following

1970 vw baja ( new paint, new motor)
1953 belair (all original 216, 3 spd)
1964 c10 (292 4spd)
rat rod 1929 chevy sedan ( my dads other project)

I'm really digging the rat rod aka "patina" look.
 
Man, that '29 of your dads is all original tho. Would be hard to rat out an all original car like that.
 
naw the 30 is all original, the coupe. the 29 is the sedan he shoved behind the shop once he got the coupe. yeah he wants to street rod the 30 one of these days and I keep telling him, no ( not like me is it, LMAO)
 
I vote for the '29 too. I've got a '29 Tudoor sitting on a buddies farm that I'll get around to one of these days. :rolleyes:
 
i just need to locate the front end and steering, I have eveything else rounded up.. oh and those headers, and summit has the steelies with baby moons.... flat black with grabber green wheels and engine.
 
wasn't that mustangII sitting at your dads still having a good front end? Or is that gone already?
 
that left with the other 6K pounds we hauled off.

in tradition i'd wanna run an I beam front.
 
Little while ago over on Ol Skool's forum we were talking about alternative front suspensions. I voted for a Ford TIB out of a Ranger. Should be easy to hang on the front of a rod and it'll already have front discs.

Paint it Black put a black widow spider on the door and ohhh yea!!

Of course it needs a wolf whistle.

It will be black. a hand made spider web grill

not sure on the induction yet I like the class of a tri power set up but I want this done cheap. probably just go with a single carb and build a bitchin air cleaner for it.

or sell my extra truck avenger and up grade to a dual carb tunnel ram from summit with some small holleys
 
29 Chevy All the way. And nothin is cooler than a dropped I-beam suicide front end. For which induction to run, I vote for eight stromberg 97s with velocity stacks:eek1:
