Saving a 32 Ford Body

Now that's funny!

 

I really like the Scottsbluff area . The drive on the other hand is too long! With a 40-50 Mile an hour cross wind it was tiring

Thanks for the compliments on the car!

 

Thank you

 

Honestly
Taking 7 years to finish this made me feel like a slacker !

 

Thank You!

 

Gorgeous car, inside and out!

I probably saw your coupe up there, but didn't recognize it without huge rust holes.

 

Boy, what a beauty!

 

It is amazing what newspaper and bondo can do!

 

Thank you.

 

Unfortunately the trip home from the show was so pleasant, as many of you know that attended the show Saturday afternoon Minneapolis/St Paul had some severe weather.

This is the result of some of that

A large black object fell from an overpass in St. Paul landing on the cowl and roof. Ultimately scratching both .

Hagerty insurance was contacted Monday morning. ATTACH=full]3599892[/ATTACH]

 

Wow!!! What are those, scratches??

 

Yup, and very deep. This can be blended but Whole car will need to be cleared

Bummer

 

] Haven't put the hood on the car because I could not find threaded rivet head screws. I've spent hours trying to source these to no avail

Saturday I decided that enough was enough . I bought #8 -32 screws in stainless both truss head and standard

Too start I tig welded the Phillips head .

 

Next I mounted the drill in the vise chucked up the screw and went to town

 

I used 80 and 120 on the grinder and then progressed through the sand paper. I wound up leaving the sandpaper on the roll for support

 

Wound up welding 12 to get 8 , I was happy with.

The final product, screws with rivet heads and kep nuts on the back side

 

Very nice!

 

Thanks

 

Your 5 window is unreal, thinking back to where you started. Good job is an understatement

 

You took it to the right place for sure. Doug does great work & priced right, he done the seat in my 3 window. It is the most comfortable seat of all my deuces.
I really like the way this car turned out....job well done!

 

Thanks Dennis

I'm really happy with Doug's work . Ironically it was your seat that lead me to him.
