Some of the Custom Work Done
Although all the cars built here are works of art I am especially pleased with how a couple of the custom items I have built over the years have come out. The brass gauges in the above photo were made by hand, by me, in 1990. On the left is a fuel gauge, then an ammeter in a custom brass housing, then under the mixture is a pocket watch in another custom holder, then an oil gauge. The speedometer is a stock accessory. Under the coil box you will see a gas pedal made out of my great-great-grandmothers piano.
Above you will see the same oil gauge and to the left six custom brass gauge holders and to the left of that a lengthened steering column support.
This is the before...
When you cant find one to buy - you make it!
This was fun, I took stock brass handrail parts and made a custom intake manifold. Under that is a custom brass valve cover with the ford script stamped in it. Behind the cover is a Stipe "Laurel Roof" camshaft, custom lifters, and a Model A crankshaft.
I was making my own spokes (see lathe duplicator in background) but found out it was cheaper to buy them all made rather than buy hickory and cut them them here.
