Projects 1946 ford Roadster Cab RPU Lakester

Sorry just re read, you cut 8 inches of the bottom, here's my door tops, not overly happy with that either, but you see what I mean with radius on tops of doors

 

Thanks for the pictures. I took 8 inches off the bottom, moved the bottom hinge up. Took 8 inches out of the center of the body to get it to match the 32 frame at the firewall. The flat section at the back of the door is where I plan on having the top go to. The doors are pinched at the front. I do not really care for the windshield so I have been trying out some other ideas, slow but steady

 

37/39 ford windscreen will sit right on the truck cowl,maybe you can rework the posts you have to fit,My screen was chopped two inches, anyway I'm following along with great interest knowing this is not your typical hamb build,i enjoy this kind of creativity ,and using resources at hand Johnny

 

keep going! I like some of these treasures made from trash and leftovers type of builds.
love the creativity!

 

Found this shifter at Amherst swap meet. Complete with an old stone door knob. Bend looks kinda wierd but the stock one did not clear the dash. Also bought a tank from Tanks inc. next up is the radiator. Slow and steady but it will get done. View attachment 3479015 View attachment 3479015 View attachment 3479015

 

Worked a little more on the project. Got a tailgate for the bed from a friend. He bought it for his forty but got it home and noticed it was narrowed. Somebody cut about 4 inched off of one side???? Thats okay with me I need to narrow it more anyway so its a castoff that I won't feel guilty about cutting up. \ Did a little more patching on the shortened bed sides. need to get busy with the grinder. Rebuilt the 32 clutch and brake setup, new bushings and shaft.
