Yeah this is definitely the streamlined version
I figured it would be cool to see if anyone was interested. Plus I think my dads' streetrod friends are on here from Washington. We all weld stuff and drink beer right?

Very nice work! Love the progress pics, keep them coming when you get the chance.
Just one question, what did you use to drill the holes through your axle?
Thanks, ThomasMe: I don't know how to build a hot rod.
Old Hot Rodder: You ever build a model car?
Me:Yeah...
Old Hot Rodder: Well instead of using glue you weld.

Keep those up dates coming, cool little car, reminds me of mine when I was building it, but that was a loooooong time ago.
Noticed how you have the Cowl tank marked to fill in. I was driving through Hobbs New Mexico in my little coupe in 1980 or so. Back then "THEY" stll pumped the fuel. Went to the head and came back and the station guy had pumped in 5 or 6 gallons of fuel right through the cowl and onto the floor as the tank was long gone. Made me feel like a fool for not filling it in sooner.
I really like your dash as well very cool. I built my own dash as well, but your use of an existing dash cut down is very good!!
Nice car keep those pic's coming.

Nice work,like how the rod is going.
I'm seeing them headlite mounts as big time vib to headlite,idea would be add more bracing;crossbar and some kind of something off horns too?
