    '33 Dream

    I used the fabulous photo of Eric's car as a rendering basis because it is a nice large resolution which makes modifying it a lot easier.



    I appreciate this design won't be to everyone's taste, but that's what keeps our hobby interesting

    One day maybe I'll build it..................................

    Just do it. Life's too short to care what others think and it's your money.

    I like your design. The quick change rear end will take some fabrication, but nothing is impossible. Thanks for posting your dream.

    Ridetech's car looks to have a relatively simple set up in order to mount it in the car.



    Probably need some chassis bracketry changed and moved around. I put a Volvo axle into a 1951 Austin Pickup once on coil-overs using the stock Volvo upper 4-bar arms with fabricated lower arms picking up on existing spring mounts on the chassis. So I'm cool with this kind of stuff The set up was basically like the FF 4-bar.



    It was my daily-driver, commuting to work car. "Normal" cars bore me.

    Nice! I like the big headlights. Simca is cool, I've never seen one in motion...
