and adjustable trans mount.Base frame.Chassis and car pic's are shown as samples
With this set up you can run just about any engine trans in your hot rod.
Fits all Model A Ford bodies 1928-31.Roadsters,coupes,sedans,pick ups. (can not use fenders)
Cars shown are our customers projects for samples. Hemi and a four speed? yup. SBC auto?, Flathead and 5 speed? why not !
The frame is designed for the front axle to have spring on top.Why? Because it works.That's the way Henry Ford designed it.
I hate to see a tie rod out front.Yucky. rear is ladder bar and transverse (aka buggy) spring.Simple strong and it works.
All frames are built to order, custom work gladly done. Call to discuss it. Odd motor, or other brand bodies, Plymouth, Oldsmobile, Essex, Hudson, we've done em !
