Projects 41 plymouth coupe 392 hemi build thread

Thanks Brand Apart! A/C is certainly not needed here in the flat country. No power steering either. I've set the engine back and in combination with the aluminium heads and close ratio rack, steering is not a problem.

Have a great 2016!

 

Sounds like a good plan Carsten. Have a great 2016!

 

Fenders and grill mounted. Just the hood to go.

 

Looks awesome.

 

One more side view.

 

Looking good...

 

WOW! Your car is looking great Eric!

 

So close Eric, looking straight and smooth - any idea as to when they plan on spraying the black paint?

 

Thank you gentlemen!

 

Thanks Mike. Paint should going on this month.......but then again, it could be februari...

 

Installed the brackets/running boards today. Final adjustments are still required in order to line them up perfectly with the body and fenders.

 

nervs of steel you got! (patience related)

 

Hahaha, thanks Carsten!

 

How's it going Eric?

 

Progress has been slow last week.......fenders are now finally 100% correct in position.....still waiting on the hood hinges. Let's hope the next update will show a little more progress! Even my patience is slowly running out.

 

Things are going a little slow at the moment Scott. Unfortunately you can't rush certain things. (apparently)

 

"Even my patience is slowly running out."
Hang in there, don't reach for the rattle cans yet!

 

I still have some patience left, don't worry!

 

Coming up on 6 years since you started this project. Did you ever think it might take this long? I gotta give you props on patience. I'd have said a bad word or 10 by now.

 

Nov. 8th 2014, on the bright side you didn't say which Christmas !!!

 

To be honest, I expected it to take a little shorter........unfortunately due to circumstances it has taken longer. But I remain positive without saying too many bad words. You can't rush certain things.

 

You are 100% correct.......

 

On the bright side, I did manage to install the bench seat frames. I had to drill all the holes of the frames again, as they were covered in powder coat. Luckily I have long arms so I could reach under the car with a spanner, while tightening the bolts from the top.

Still following you build. Good luck.

 

Hows the car coming along Eric?

 

still following this one, can't wait till you're on the road!

 

Any thing?????

 

It has been a while since we heard from Eric, I'm sure we will hear from him soon... Makes you wonder why this shop is taking so long to finally shoot some gloss black on his car, with the body being so close to perfect. We'll know soon enough!

 

I'm sure he wants closer too.
