Well I done with this stage of the build, now will work on the files some more. Love what the computor can do but hate the learning curve, pdf,file types and all that stuff. I am desiging two versions, easy and detailed. Hope the pic come out ok!

Nice looking Hot Rod!! The engine came out excellent, actually, the whole thing looks excellent. Maybe an interior in the future?

Yea! that what's next, have to remove some interior frames went a little overboard on them cause of the radio gear. Will have the trunk open too with the doors. Would like to round the cawl area above the fire wall. Really don't like all the hard corners eather, so well see what happens.

This is one of the hottest Hot Rods ina very long time. Definitely one of the most realistic. Most are exaggerated, this one seems drivable!

Started working on the front end. Have been staring at the Hot Rodder mag. which is my source of info. The choices are endless as to what the rodders use. I just seems to like the old type drop front axle, so I moved the tie rod to back of the axle add those little frame end to the front, but the leaf spring under the cross member, and added some shock towers. Made the wheels turn but not roll. got rid of the four spoke mags. Have labored over how to make seemless tires, I don't like having all the sawtooth taps.

Have reworked the grill and made a opional carb. setup, down size the value covers a little. Water pump area move out some. channeled the body down on the frame. Bought a 1/16 model of a 31 ford model A delivery van at the flea market by Entex most be a old old one cause there is no barcode on the box. lots of great detail to help get this coupe right.
