****41 ford chop....shop build pics ***

Some update pics, car is in primer, going to block it out , reprime and then set body on new chassis, so we can wire it and start the interior.

 

I love the back end. Its pure butter.

 

Looking good Jeff!

 

Looks awesome Jeff!!! You are my hero. Thanks for the beef jerky!!! lol

 

DAng man! Looks slick! Way kooler in person!!

 

Damn! How sweet it is.

 

Old chassis is out from under car, I coated the bottom of body with por 15 and seam sealed everything, painted firewall, and running fuel lines and doing exhaust this weekend. then Next week should be ready to put new chassis under body.

 

here's the underneath and firewall color.

 

here's the really nice old chassis, man some people shouldn't work on cars, this is some od the worst I've ever seen, and they couldn't weld, and the new chassis that my buddy clay and jim dale built. this should hold up to anything the owner wants to dish out from the hopped up 302 and 5 speed. it now has 4 wheel disk brakes also.

 

new stuff............

 

What is the front bumper on that Chevy? Is it '54 Chevy, or something else? That ridge toward the bottom makes me think '54 Ford but I know they are too narrow??

 

Wow thats looking great Jeff!

 

Luk'n Very Kool! Hhhuummm may need to go for a drive...

 

Muy bueno!!!!

 

NOPE, it is a 54 -56 ford bumper, I liked it more then the flat ft. bumper of the chevy. adds more weight to the ft. end.

 

She's come a long way, nice work!!

 

I'll be damned - I have one of those hanging in my garage rafter and I thought it would be too narrow for my '51 Chevy. Live and learn. Thanks!!

 

Looking Great Jeff .That old frame was a death trap . Clay and JD do some sweet work.
Mick holler when you head west .

 

some updates.... got exhaust done, plumbed the fuel lines and remote fill master cylinder, and por 15 the whole underside and seam sealed all the seams. now the body is back on frame, and starting wireing and upholstry soon !!

 

body is on !! not the right tires an wheels so stance isn't right but it will get there.

 

Looking forward to seeing it's taillights through my windshield while it looks better than my ride and outruns me

 

Looks kool sitting on the frame, it is going to be kool to watch it come together.
Thanks for keeping us posted.

Happy Trails, Mick

 

oh, and I forgot to say.......FATLUCKY'S is coming !!!!!

 

He does house calls??

 

That calls for another run through the flint hills, no?

 

Any updates?

 

wtf? Just went through all 11 pages and No NEW updates....... Need more

 

I may need to go on a road trip.

 

Not to speak for him, but I know Jeff is busy so in case he doesn't get on here for a day or two. The car is now getting upholstery done. I have a few later in the build pics but I think those are being saved for now. I will look and see if I have any that I've posted to Instagram or other social media, if so I'll try to post them here.
