Default Re: I picked up a cheap 38 standard and put it on the road.

Next I put the engine in..... and started looking for a v8 85 radiator.. as well as all the missing dash, grill and hood ornament.

I also needed to redo the brakes..... I was going to stay mechanical but a friend who I have been helping with his model a coupe.. offered to sell and deliver the old chassis from under his car. I couldn't refuse, he bought the A in 1958 when he was a teenager(he set the car untouched in his barn till this year when he finally decided to restore it!!!) It has 1939 hydraulic brakes added to it, so that solved my missing brake part issues.
