Whiplash23T- Thanks, I will tell her. I'm continuing on the sedan, 2 a.m. this morning

Don- Thanks, I read every page, he does really nice work! Did you see that J. Robinson and I did our frames differently but accomplishing the same thing?

Steve- I have been thinking about this thing for a long time, I can't wait to get started.

Uncle Bob- That's it, only my valve covers will look like the traditional Arduns.

STREETWERKZ- I'm pedaling as fast as I can

deuce4papa- I have no stress that's why I hang out here, best stress reliever! I'm still going on the sedan, I got the steering box finished last night.

Ken

Wow, Ken. That is a great concept car. Like everyone else, I will be interested in following this project.

Yes,we are all waiting with bated breath,,this is going to be AWESOME...Not gunna miss this one..

Like that Ken, looks very slick, especially like the wedge chop. look forward to the updates.

Like this one. It is a beauty in progress.

Ken - I'm curious as to how you found the SS to bend and form. What grade is it? I haven't used much of it ever but I do recall the guys in the tin shop (GE large motors) didn't like using it to make fan blades and parts that needed to be bent and when I was foreman, those parts were always late.

Nice motor !!!

Dave - It really didn't seem that much different. The material is 304.

That 5 window "A" is awesome but two questions.... I wonder how comfortable those bomber seats are??? And how will the driver see clearly with that LARGE steering wheel??? okay I understand that it matches the style of the car, but in my humble opinion,why build something that one can't drive safely and or comfortably.

Thanks Ken - I know that some grades of SS are really tough to work. 304 and 304L are about the easiest with the 316 and 316L a bunch tougher to use. I'll be watching the progress with lots of interest

Whiplash - I'm in the process of putting some upholstered bomber seats in my '31 and removing my nice Glide Engineering for a couple of reasons - to get me lower so my head is below the top of the windshield and my dunlap a bit further from the steering wheel and also so I can more easily get my US size 12 feet on the pedals

I did see that, Ken. Very smart of both of you and a good way to get that look but with some room.
