Mark in....well almost Ontario

Hi all,

Mark here. I don't live in Ontario but about 20 kms from the QC-Ont border. 

Member here because they're killing hot rodding in QC. Retired public works director. Longtime car fanatic. Ex Formula Ford racer. Tool and machinery junkie.

Longtime build of 29 Model A Sport Coupe / Cabriolet / Roadster in my avatar. First test drive was last days of Nov. 2022, all went well!

Won't be re-posting build details here on OntarioRodders as I've just found this group.

Check it out on Canadian Rodder, lots of pics, not a lot of text....

My little piece of heaven, my home shop tour,

I make it up to the Alexandria EZ Cruisers cruise night every couple of weeks and of course the V8 Swapmeet in Greely, the show in Crysler, Merrickville etc etc.

Cheers!

Welcome Mark. Nice build on your "A".  A black "A" on '32 rails with skinny tires and a SBC,,, just perfect. I see you got to drive it last Nov. I got my fresh '40 on the road last Nov. too. I managed to get almost 200 miles on it.

Welcome Mark. Fixed your links. This forums provider is a bit funny in that regard.

Thanks Rick!  A couple hundred miles? Geez, I think I got about  10 miles in and I was thrilled, you must have been happy. 

Any pics of it here on the forum? Did a quick scan of your posts and don't see it mentioned. 

cheers!

Thanks Ponch!   I read the instructions but I clearly have not mastered the link protocol....I guess cutting and pasting the link doesn't work?

thx!

 

Copy/paste will work but a live link is better. What you have to do is put the url tags around the link. [url] before the link and [ /url]... after.

         No pictures on here. I usually don't post pictures of my builds. Here is a picture of it at the London Modifiers Saturday morning cars and coffee last November, sorry it's so big. I really like the black on black on black look. I noticed you even ran the plug wire like they were originally intended to go.      40.jpg
