Thanks Frank. It feels good to hit the milestone points on a build.

Great profile Tim. I think you nailed the rear tire location. I like!

Having built a channeled Model A years ago I missed the height of the side profile that the frame adds to the body. And because a Model A frame is only 4" high the profile still needs more. I think it looks great. and the frame under the body lets you run some decent size tires and still keep them centered in the fender recess line. The added profile height makes a "Rake" look meaner and lets you run a little longer frame and have it all come together. That IS the look. GPster

I really like what you are doing.  Looks a lot like an image that is fermenting in my head.  Did you build your own chassis?

Thinking down the road to my extra '32 frame rails that my son has claimed - He plans on putting a '30 -'31 coupe or roadster on the frame.  So my question is -what did you do to the frame for the body to fit well. Pinch the rails at the cowl?  Any mods at the front of the rear fender recess line to tuck the frame rails in, etc?  Any measurements you can share.  He would also like to run the frame extensions and a '32 gas tank. not sure how that will work.  We are waiting our turn to use a buddy's '32 frame jig but would like to have an idea going into it what changes we will need to make.   Although we do have access to a cowl, he doesn't have a body yet to aid in the fit up, .  Hope he's not holding his breath, I'm NOT supplying that.

Tim,

Bring the trunk lid with you if it's ready to put holes in. Hood too? I'll have the Mullins with me and I can get them home.
