Thread: new here in need of guidance

I've got a stock but boxed model a frame under my 27 and it works well, but in hindsight I could have put a repro frame under it for the same money I have in it with a whole lot less work. Model a repro frames are very reasonable compared to the 32 versions and you can get them with various rear crossmembers to use anything from buggy spring to coilovers and more.

Post some pictures of your car, it will help us help you figure out the best way to build this one.

Welcome, Joel. I would advise you to keep it a coupe rather than cut it into a roadster. These conversions never look quite right, and the resale value will be much less. '28-29 Coupes make great looking highboys as the photo shows.

welcome joel and be sure to take lots of pictures as you go.

Welcome Joel from me too and man you already have had a response from only some of the great, friendless, knowledgeable people on here so tighten your belt around your waste,sit down and make yourself comfortable and enjoy the ride.Oh I agree,get some photos up of both cars for us please.
