    Looked around a bit but didn't see any write up about the build and materials used in making the Carson type top and frame work, is there one? Thanks!

    Glad to see you are still at it. I poured over your build prior to starting my 39 Cad. great inspiration. You need to post on the Custom Car Chronicle .
    I'll watch with interest on the Carson top.

    Thanks again for the feedback!
    Here's an update on the top. Pretty much done with the framework, it just needs some final tweaking I think.

    Wow. header just needs a rounded corner so the transition from screen to top isnt quite as square. . . and rounded corners on rear window.
    Coolest car on the Hamb.

  16. One of the great things about this boards is getting to see what people outside the USA are doing. Nice build.

    I'm sorry to say there's no progress on the Zephyr. I've spent the last 6 months building a Harley Knucklehead, and also built a Model A speedster together with a friend. Hopefully I'll be back working on the Zephyr very soon!
    I'm rarely on the hamb. Follow heinrichvonsatan on IG for updates.
