Thread: 1928 Chopped A Sedan

Tweet

Same story as the others. Bought way too much stuff this summer. Spent too much time on one instead of finishing several. Winter is coming, no place to store, need to move a couple. I'm listing them all, I'll build what's left.

This 28 Sedan has been chopped somewhere between 4 - 5 inches. It's sitting on a later model frame with a Mustang II front end, 8" rear end, Big Block and cammed 400 and a C-6 transmission. It does run although it does need to be correctly wired (I do have a new hot rod harness). The cooling works great. Brakes are plumbed as far as the firewall, needs to be attached to a master cylinder. The steering is done all the way to the firewall, just needs a steering column installed (I have columns). Everything else is pretty obvious - interior, glass (may be able to help with glass), driveshaft, shifter, roof skin. Really solid car (see original picture) that could be driving in a few weeks of evenings in the garage. I may edit this post as I do more stuff to the car as time allows.

I'm asking 7200.00, but cash talks, offers are listened to, and I may take an interesting partial trade.

Is the body moved back to provide engine clearance?

Henry,

I guess you could say that. The frame is 9 inches longer than stock. It allowed for engine and trans clearance and still retain the stock firewall. The original owner told me he was planning on putting the master cylinder right on the firewall. I plan on putting it on the rail under the car. Started wiring it tonight. Hopefully, that won't take too long.

Thanks for the question,
Bruce

Do you still have the Ford wire wheels that were on the car in the bottom photo?... I already have a set of '35 Ford Wires, but I might be interested in them if they are '33/'34 (17 inch) or '32 (18 inch)...

Let me know...

Dave,

I believe I kept those wheels. I have about 20 in the garage right now. I never got around to separating them out by size yet. If I remember correctly, everything I have is V8 rims. I honestly don't remember sizes but would be glad to check beginning of the week for you.

Bruce
