Your windshield is one of the part I am interesting in seeing on your roadster. Looks like straight glass across it?

We cut the windsheild off before it started to curve. We sit low so all but the heaviest rain goes over our head. Just don't linger too long at stop signs.
Here is another.
The last one. We have a 46 Dodge cab and a ranger frame we plan to put it on. I guess great minds think alike!
Thanks for the pic's Marica. I too started out with a ranger frame but decided against it. The more I looked at it the more I didnt like the frontend twin I-beams. I wanted a straight axle front supension so I build my own frame.
Like the moon eyes:)
Started rebuilding the dash last night. Mine is so rusted right where the column is to mount that I decided to cut it all out and start over with a flat style dash and put in a 5 gauge panel(in the future).
Also extented my brake petal 5 inches. Also a ranger brake.:D. I liked the look of the smaller footpad. Will build some kind of mounting system for it today after I get back from the grdson's football game.

Got back from the grdsons football game, (we lost) and started working on the brake pedal assembly. Got the mounting bracket and supports make and welded in place today. Had to shorten the pedal arm by 2 inches, it was hitting the floor.:LOL:
Here's a couple of pic's.

Got the master cylinder mounted and the brake pushrod hooked up today. Works great!!:D

Looks great Larry. Nice and solid! I like the master cylinders where you can get to them. Mine is under the floor boards and really a challenge to work around!
OK Larry, that's enough showing off----You're getting ahead of me! Got pics of the outside of cowl, master cylinder? Shoooot, I still offer that invite, you know, maybe even some lobstah to go with it. Heck, two of us could whip off my Essex like nothing! Good going friend. Perley
It only takes me 18 hours to get to Lexington NC. Faster if you'r not towing anything. I'll throw a lobster in the pot for you.:D
Marcia
Up date on my progress: Machined the R&P brackets this weekend. Thank God for brothers in and with machine shops. Also got all the parts made for the steering colunm.
Larry
OK Larry, now your just showing off--------:LOL:
Just because I wuz starting to gain on you with my pedals and column, especially because I shortened my OWN column MYSELF, and you got green eyed-------:whacked:
haaahaaaa. Great job my Friend. I could have given you a column somewhat similar, if only you'd have taken my invite to come up! haahaaaa. Keep forging ahead buddy. Perley :)
