1934 build for the Outlaw Run and missing the deadline... Using the AMT 49 Merc flthead, dual Strombergs, aircleaner from The Parts Box. The idea is building a daily driver from the late fifties or early sixties. Simple, hotrodded and transportation. The front wheels are from the bin, front tires from a mid sixties built AMT 40 Ford and rear wheels and tires from the Ala Kart re-pop. Will paint and weather the chassis, add the exhaust and interior and another coat on the body with slight weathering around the doors and call it done. Thanks for looking. Charles

Thanks Tom. Nope the engine is outta the 49 Merc. My gf doesn't get the posting of progress pix but for me, seeing others building and getting feedback on my own is a powerful incentive to continue...I don't know anyone who builds except who I have met online and it is cool to say "see what I am doing".
