S. Co. T. Blown Ardun Flathead 29 roadster

[Oldmopars]

Well, I had to build one. I was asked to design this engine and once done, I figured I needed to build a car to put it in. So, here it is. 

This engine/Trans is available from Texas 3D Customs. I also plan to create a quick change for the rear, the kit has a 9in and it's just to correct for the period. My goal is a period correct 1950 Era 29 roadster as would have been ownedlittle cash to build his dream rod. 

So, Flathead,  S. . T. Blower, Vertex Mag, Ardun heads, triple 97s, model A Trans, and a quick change. Should be fun.

Is it just me or Is the blower hovering? And you had me at Ardun?

Yes, it is. However it is just mocked up for a quick picture. It all fits. 

I think it's going to make a cool old rod.

Great start Scott!  It'll look great with a Quickchange poking out from under the back of the body there

OK, So he is not from a poor family. Maybe he is a Beverly Hills Rebel.

You're definitely printing that differently than I am, but I am mass printing them which makes me have to make a few compromises. What headers are those?

They are a Zoomie style header, basically 45 degrees out the side. The regular headers do not fit with the frame. I may try swapping side to side to get them to fit the outside of the frame. However, I think I like the Zoomie style.

I meant where did you get those, I have a set of zoomies I made as well

I just drew them up myself and printed them

Love what you guys are doing with 3D printing! Very nice work, and an interesting process for sure.

They look very similar to the ones I made for my Hemi didn't know if I shared them with you. Perhaps I should offer a set of zoomies for this.

The 29 is looking good.  The engine is killer.
