Projects Recreating the jesse lopez coupe

It's a fine line that separates crazy from brilliant.

 

Very cool, thanks for that. The only thing that shouts my name is the beltline stainless on the hood. But I'm sure you already knew that Jerry. Outstanding re-creation.

 

Well, we're back from Florida, very nice (Tampa area). We did take a trip up north. I hope the pics turn out. I'll post when I can get g/ma to get them together.

 

Well, g/ma has done her work, so here are the shots, not a comprehensive effort, just a taste. I'm sure you can find a complete tour online.

 

Horsepower Heaven, wow. Thanks for that.

WE HAVE MOVEMENT! I've been told that the grille and the garnish moldings are going to be ready to pick up next Monday. This will be what's needed to finish this car up. I've been piddleing around the edge's detailing and shinning things up

 

oh yeah ! Thank you....looking great !

 

Amazing car and skill. Love it!

 

Jer - over the course of the past couple weeks I have read in completion both your Jr. build and this one. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for your dedication to seeing these through, from the ups and downs, to the highs and lows. God is good!

For being a younger guy around here, this has been truly inspirational.

 

I've said it before and I'll say it again. You have done an amazing build and Thank You for sharing it all. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

 

Finally!
OH...thanks for the kind words, everybody.

A level of build to which we all aspire...

Button 'er up Jer!

New grille comes with lots, and lots of copper, no longer fits. The fun never stops.

 

By now, you should be used to this dance!

 

We're smilin' right along with you Jer. ...Right Jer? ..smilin'? This hobby can certainly keep you on your toes!

Driving the coupe when all is said and done will be just that much more satisfying after dealing with all the setbacks and surprises.. ..but whew!
