Number 5 in the stash bash- another project gotten in trade from someone who lost interest in it. Considerable modifications to the chassis, especially where the transverse spring will mount. Going with an old weathered rusty hot rod- not a barn find- not a rat rod- with an Eddie Meyer hop up kit on the engine for some extra gow! Included a couple of pix to show the direction I am going.

Fourth in the stash bash. 32 Ford roadster received in a trade. Frame attached to body, not my style of building should be interesting to paint. Looks like a flip front end was planned but front cross member was too narrow and too far forward. Removed and replaced it and added a tube on the grille shell bottom. This allows the back of the hood to meet the cowl properly.

Third completion of the stash bash- Model A roadster. Oops! just noticed a headlight rotated out of position. Next will be a Deuce roadster!

When you go to mounting the tires, heat them up in hot water to soften them- those wheels are fragile!

Number 3 in the stash bash! This one started out as just the green Model A roadster body. Dug out a tubular roadster frame, a chrome tree from the rat rod pickup, and various goodies from the parts boxes. Engine is from the latest rendition of the Revell 32 roadster.
