Do you have any photos of your frame setup, what rear end etc?

I'm using a 39 truck engine that I got about 12 years ago. It sit out side with the air cleaner and hood off for many years, before I got it.

Using a 39 Ford car transmission, 40ts Lincoln rear Axle

VERY NICE! love it. I've been building a 28 pickup from parts here and there. I picked up the body last month. I was amazed that it all fit into the bed of my truck when disassembled. My buddy's and I started working on it and there were some really rough areas so we decided to make it a roadster. The cab is 80% done but the build has been put on hold for right now as the wife got a new job in Winston Salem two months ago and moved down from Ohio. I've been back here getting the house ready for sale and it sold within two hours of hitting the market! We're looking at a house in Walkertown, NC that has an awesome garage! Hopefully we'll be all moved in by the end of September so I can finish the build. Looks like I'll be in the company of a bunch of model A'rs!

You will make it, moves are tough. I just moved 420 miles. It took 2 - 26ft Penske trucks, 2- 16ft Budget trucks, 2 trips with an enclosed 24 ft trailer, 2 trips with a 10ft enclosed trailer, a 10' open trailer and about 10 trips with a pickup truck to get everything of mine moved. None of that is counting the 17 vehicles moved as well. My new shop won't be functional for some time. I'm building a new house first. So your move seems easy But really none are, good luck.

Here is the last picture of my pickup. It is mostly done, just needs door glass and two hub caps.

It is set up for a original engine or a 39 flat head ford V8.
The fenders are a dark blue, although it does not look that way in the picture.

I have a couple. Does not show the Lincoln rear axle, but that is what it is. Had to shorten the torque tube and drive shaft.
