EXHAUSTING THE POSSIBILITIES

Sanderson "Zoomies"

Researching headers for my 29 Model A roadster. I've seen lots of negative stuff on Sanderson's but like the look of their "Zoomies" and lakes, available elsewhere.

I've also seen that Patriot (and Hedman) make do-it-yourself kits, which may also be a good possibility
for the roadster.

Ultimately, we may be fabbing a pair of headers that are tapered and conical with screw in restrictors. I'm also interested in finding a resource who can custom make a pair for my Model A's 327. Any thoughts, suggestions, advice or pics are welcome.

IN PRAISE OF FIBERGLASS

Leave it to the gents at Speedway Motors to come out with a fiberglass body I'd actually be proud to be seen in. It popped up in the February 2011 issue of Street Rodder. This car, available in kit form, does a damn fine job of looking like a cool traditional ride, IMHO. Am I going to scrap my roadster in lieu of this car? Well, I won't go that far. But I've gotta give some serious props where I think they're well deserved. If you're intersted in reading the article, have at it. And if the article captures your attention, check out the kit on Speedway's website.  Now back to the metal dreaming.
