Sorry, that last post is a repeat. I've got to pay closer attention. I'll just blame it on being old. Anyway, it's all green to me now.
subscribed. I see this term all the time - what does it mean? Is there an 'electronic' subsciption, or does it simply mean 'I'm watching?'
Thanks, Fox. Thanks you, Finnrodder. Thanks, pugman. The color really comes out with the wood. The maple should turn a honey color with the varnish. Thanks, Azsnow. Thanks, Boones. The stance is with the air out of the bags. It's down on the bump-stops in front. The rear will be a little lower as weight is added with tailgate, glass, upholstery, etc.
Thanks, general. Thanks, Ed. Thanks, lockwood. Get back on your wagon project. Thanks, Cars. The wheels are steel. They will be a gold color (same for dash and garnish moldings) with 49/50 Ford hub caps.
I don't know how I have missed this build but WOW! The 2 door wagons trip my trigger anyway but a Woodie is the bee's knees,,,the stance,color and craftsmanship is outstanding,,I too am subscribing! HRP
I am glad I ran across this thread! I have a stalled 51 Sedan project & have always liked the shoebox wagons. Great job & great color choice!
That is looking great! Im a fan of your Hupp already, and this looks like its not gonna be any lesser.
This is looking stellar!! I love the look of the color mixed with the dark wood. This is gonna turn out great. Subscribed. I can't wait to see it in all of its glory.
I LOVE this car. '50 - '51 Ford and Merc woodies are one of my favorite all time cars, even in stock form. Owning one is on my "bucket list".
Thanks, woodienut. Thanks, Fox. Thank you HOTRODPRIMER. I've always been a sucker for the 2-dr wagons. I did a 56 Nomad about 30 years ago. I also can't wait to see it finished. Thanks, Tim. Well, get back on that shoebox project. Thanks, bonez. Thanks, 39 tow,
For the last few weeks it's been varnish, sand, varnish, sand, varnish, sand, repeat. I believe we're done with the mahogany insert panels and only need a final coat or two on some of the maple frames.
