29 A roadster - budget hot rod

Woah I'm drooling on my Blackberry, better fire up the PC to check this baby out!

This was a totally enjoyable build to watch! Seeing all your scratch built bits and pieces was an education.

Thanks, guys. I'm going to miss working on this one.

Terry, a few rips in the seat would have been a good idea. Like you said, nothing drastic, just a bit more wear. I won't be trying that at this stage in the game. Maybe on the next one.

I found a flathead oil cap. You know, the ribbed chrome one that comes as a hop up part with alot of these flatheads. I added some length to the mounting stem, sanded off the ribs and painted it silver. Right when I was test fitting it to the radiator with some tweasers, it popped out of the tweasers and went flying off to ???.

30 minutes down the drain just for a radiator cap...

Now I'm scrounging for another one. I have the one that comes with the '29, but it looks like a chrome blob.

I can't count how many times I've had a tiny part snap out of the tip of my tweasers, lost forever.
