Default 28-31 boat tail speedster

I want to thank the fourm for its help in my two year quest of making my boat tail. It has a 28-29 front end . The back end is from a 27 Bugatti kit car that was made for the VW years ago. The frame is 31, it has juice brakes and a t5 transmission. It's been a long road . As they say " it's all for fun" . It was a lot easer hen I restored my 1930 deluxe roadster. All the parts where standard. My hat is off to the custom crowd. Miff

Very nice !
Yesterdays Hemming's featured Edsel Fords boat tail speedster going to the auction block shortly.
What a stunning vehicle !!
I'm currently doing a 38 Ford coupe street rod & considering boat tailing the front fenders & altering the front of the rears eliminating the running boards.
The pic of Edsel's speedster pushed me over the edge---no more indecision .
