Projects My 1955 Bel Air build

Getting ready to take to blasters. Hopefully it will come back with some steel. I will post a pic next week when I get it back.

 

What are your plans for the build?

 

Do all metal work. Then work on frame

 

Got the 55 back from the sand blaster. $300 was a good deal. Inside out, and under. Am installing rocker panels now. Finding out its a bigger job than expected.

 

Who blasted your car? I'm in Ontario Or. and about ready to blast my 54. Thanks Jack

 

Ok, so I'm suffering a pretty serious case of shop envy here.....is that your place or Vic ed shop or something? (Hmmm, we don't seem to have the drooling icon I need right now!)

Looks like you have lots of steel left. There's never that much steel left on 55's that lived here in Pennsylvania for the past 59 years.

 

don't forget to blow out all the leftover sand before painting. It hides EVERYWHERE you can think of and more and CAN cause nasty problems when it jumps put while painting.

 

Thanks that's who did my Lincoln. Used plastic and it still comes out everywhere. Jack

 

I blasted my shorts....can't get that out either !

Good luck with your build. Looks like a great start.

 

Thats real solid for a 55.You are lucky to start with a solid car to begin with.
