Product Description:
Build your own flathead roadster just as it would have been built in the 1950s! Using a 1929 Ford Model A, this guide follows its construction from start to fantastic finish. Bishop begins with a wealth of expert advice on planning your project, finding traditional parts, and acquiring the tools, time, space, and services needed. From frame, front suspension and steering, to brakes, engine and transmission, Bishop's expert approach is fully illustrated with specially commissioned photos and line drawings.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Ideas for Traditional Ford Hot Rod
Enjoyed the great tips on how to build a Hot Rod. This book helps you get more ideas than you already have. You will definately be informed.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Book!
Very well written; one of the only books I could find on "traditional" hot rods.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - For Real Hot Rodders
This book is very well done. It is mainly a one style book of ideas and those opinions and style come from the Bay Area of California so they may not exactly jive with So Cal or East Coast or anywhere else, but the info is very useful and well written.

Overall highly reccomended for Real Hot Rodders, ... Read More
