Projects GowJob- the new 32 phaeton family cruiser build

The hood looks good all one color.


To chop,or not to chop. That is the question.

 

Not to much has progressed on the tub recently, but did get some shocks from the Elmer's

Been working on the spare frame some. I got rid of the mor drop axle and put a Dago under it so it matches the tub. Absolutely love the way a dago axle looks. Did up some different headlight stands using a 32 bar. The other ones I just couldn't decide if I like. I really like the way they turned out. Put on the old wires that I had on the old fordor

Looks great man! I'm glad to see you are keeping after it.

 

Is that a flathead conversion for a Hemi?

 

Great build thread where did you get the Elmers at?

 

Thanks cactus1. Went through a rough patch with my daughters health and just about let it go. Thank god for the Elmer shocks! They brought me back to the light

Yup... it's actually a dodge hemi. Probably about the equivalent of an ardun but cheaper

Thanks for the info.

 

That baby Hemi solves all problems; you get "the look" without extra weight. Gonna be so neat.

 

Do you have contact for Elmer's? Your project is bitchin!

 

A friend gave me a crash coarse on using an English wheel a while back, and I finally got to try it out on my own this weekend.
Really happy with how it turned out. Just need to weld it in

Sick kids put everything else on hold. I hope she doing well.

 

I wish I could say yes she is, but she is our personal little angel now. I was so down after she passed that I wanted to get rid of everything. Deep down I know she would have wanted to go for rides in the tub if she was able to, so just knowing that, I decided it should stay and that we should use it to make future memories.

 

So sad about you're little girl. You seem to have the right attitude, I'm sure that is what she would want.

I know how you feel. My daughter was diagnosed with a brain stem Glanoma when she was ten and passed a year later. It was 29 years on Sept. 22 and I think about her every day. You just take lt one day at a time. I had the same feelings that you did but I stopped working on mine, wife was a basket case for about 3 years. Have a son 2 years younger and had to stay strong for them. Stayed busy with work and finish your car.

 

Been following this thread and enjoying your build. I am sorry for your lose.

 

Oh my, that's terrible news. I am so sorry for your loss! Don't be afraid to reach out if you need anything!

 

I am so sorry for you with this sad news about your little girl. The passing of family is a real difficult situation to deal with. I know you will have good memories of her when the hurt lightens up! Take it one day at a time!

 

Losing a child is horrible and the loss inside never ends, believe me I know My son Scott passed Oct'13 and I think of him always, he & I had a love of cars. People & family will help you through, god holds them all now in his hands in a very special place, be strong. Prayers to you.

 

Fuck. I'm sorry to hear that. Sorry for your loss, I can't imagine anything worse.

Hopefully you'll find some healing in building the phaeton.

 

We are all pulling for you. See my PM

 

So sorry about your baby can't imagine what your going through just know she's in a better place watching over you, god speed

My deep and sincere condolence to you and your family Brandon

 

Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers. It means a lot.

 

Do you have any contact info for Elmer's?

 

Mike Elmer said the best way to get ahold of him is at: [email protected] or shoot him a Facebook message on his elmer equipped page. Super nice to deal with, and the shocks are exceptional quality.

 

So, so sorry for your loss. Beyond words.
