I see lots of people post their projects so I thought i would do the same. Ive been working on my car for 5 years. I just got it running and driving. Its all steel and it has fenders(looks like a hiboy right now) just not on it right now. Im going to drive it around a bit in primer to work out the bugs, since this is my first hot rod. Everything is going good on it =) and BTW im 22 years old!

im also looking for the door post door tins.
Looks like it's a lowboy to me, I don't see the body sitting ontop the frame. lowboy means it's channeled over the frame, hiboy, sits ontop.
Great looking 33. What color are you going to paint it?
Great looking car!! Keep us posted on how the check ride works out!!!
Nice project.
Matt, you can't be TOO literal about the definitions. That's how a Model 40 sits on the rails without the fenders and running boards. Channelled, to make it a true lowboy, would completely hide the rails and then some on these.
22 YEARS OLD !!!!!!! You aren't allowed to have a great looking rod like this at 22 !!!
:) :) :) :)
Very, very nice rod. Sits nice, looks right on the money.
I envy you.
Don
wow looks good! i hope i can get something like that by the time im 22, you old guys get all the cool cars!
....Beautiful car ;) .... What engine are you running? bill
The color of the car is the color of the frame which is Sinfull Cinnamon. The chassis is finished and all i lack is body work on the body and fenders but i hate doing bodywork and decided to drive it around in primer for a bit. It has a small block chevy in it with a 700r4. Im trying to keep it some what original looking, wheels and hood is all that you can see thats not original. Oh i also filled the cowl vent. It was a very rough body when I got it. I had to put a new floor, subrails, and several patch panels through out it.
Oh and thats how 33-34 bodys sit on the frame originally matt167.
Someone already criticized me calling it a check rod?
Anyone criticizing the fitment of the body to the frame should be required to show you something that looks better!!!!!!!
Real sweet looking '33 Uptown83. Looks like you are doing a great job so far!
