Projects Dodge This - 1939 Dodge Southeast Gasser Build

Maybe we will change the name .....

As always the conversation takes a turn for ......

 

The cowl hack is getting cleaned up though .... gonna need the hood back soon Tom .

 

On it

 

I think it was the other way around, the ladies call the driver 'quick' for some reason?! The car was the dirty one.

 

my little pony pink, and call the car 'my littl toni' still has my vote!

 

Nice ride! Southcross bringing some experience to the D/Gas class. This is a photo of my last attempt at drag racing.

 

That's unauthorized use of Club stickers... better remove 'em

 

Just lost my coke all over pc screen !!!

Gotta make sure it has some nice rainbows and a care bear or two, as well

 

This is why picking paint is so difficult - so much good help from club members -

 

Tinky-Winky would be a GREAT name for your gasser, Tony... just get used to carrying a purse... or wearing a tu-tu

 

Moving right along.

 

Really looking good. Somebody is working hard.

 

Wish I had a Niko!!!!

 

Yeah no shit. My shoebox has been in paint shop jail for 9 months, Niko knocks this stuff out in his sleep.

Looking good Tony. Maybe I'll drag my '41 down there when the time comes. Might get to drive something in paint before I'm dead.

 

Great progress....You steppin up for this year...I like it.

 

The car is going to look great in paint! Wicked.

 

Gonna be the same color a the C-Dan livery ???

 

Color is still a mystery
Still sanding for fun and profit

Did ya try any of the Monte's yet or are ya just enjoying the Cohiba 's for now?!

 

I did burn a few of the Montecristo's and they are stout! Going through those will be slower

 

Got a package of period correct goodness from @enloe now to study up on letters and paint- thanks buddy!

Enjoy them
I always love selling old magazines and haven't been to a swap meet in a while.

On a side note this month's Car Craft has a how to guide on how to do custom paint panels, lace, and other stuff.

My vote even though I don't get one would be Blue Panels with Grayish borders with a little floake in them with some Silverleaf lettering

 

Cool article in Muscle Machines - photos by @seadog






And me after sanding all the paint off .....

 

Its coming to a final plan as of yesterday - you're not too far off. The Telletubbie colors were voted out by Niko..... gonna be in paint this time next week - he wants it gone Love painters that don't have room!

 

I should see what he would charge to paint my wagon

 

More stuff getting done! Blacksmithtom bent up a new hood to save some weight and try to block some air flow. He does amazing work

 

Tom does some beautiful work for sure. Someday I'd like to put a hood on BGII. Have a 1 piece top that I'd like to get louvered like the deck lid and build some sides that were maybe split horizontally, parting at the line where the header pipes come out, with the bottom half mounted with bolts and the top half somehow latched to the bottom half and to their respective side of the one piece top.
Sounds and looks as if Tom is the man to talk to on this idea next time he, BGIUI and I are at the same placxe at the same time

 

That Blue, with silver leaf lettering, and shadow with red. Looks bad ass.

 

Love the lines on it.I just picked up a 1948 dodge coupe you can see it on my site old time garage .ca or on my youtube channel

 

Nice page! http://www.oldtimegarage.ca/ really cool work you are doing there. Your town would make for good door art "Chilliwack Speed Center"
