Progress on my AV8 build

Don't chop it, why would you want a car that looks like everyone else's. You're doing a great job on it. I'm also tired of seeing Model A's with '32 grills. But that's just me.

Pete you are making good progress. clean chassis. My AV8 roadster is going slow,but I always get something done ,so I am enjoying it.

Be careful. Ryan just closed a thread, where a fellow had a YouTube video of his "A" V8, first start up. It is super nice. You can still see the video, in the "A" section.

I understand why the post was deleted. It is my post and Ryan was very plesant about it. The reson I posted it on the Forn Barn is this project would have never made it this far without the good folks on the Barn. Although my heart is in traditional HOT RODS ( H.A.M.B.) when I needed hard to find parts and no B.S. information and how does this work problems the answers came from the Ford Barn! Thanks for all your help!

First test drive today just around my neighbor hood. So far so good just a little exhaust clearance issue.
The "no chop" feedback got me thinking. Right now I like the way it looks.
I am going to hold off doing anything until I get it up North for the summer. It was a blast to drive.

Yes ... Chop/no Chop is always an interseting fork in the road and is purely a personal taste of the owner sort-a-thing. In my case I was so in love with the lines of the 3 Window and the growing rarity of unchopped ... I stayed loyal to the Henry point of view ... again all in the eyes of the beholder:cool:
 
Is that a geared starter on the V8? I have one on my A and it works so well I think I could drive to the next town even if it didn't start!
