    I sure would have welded some bracing in that body before cutting the roof off. A little late now. What are your plans to keep this thing on the level?

  2. Keep up the dedication, it is a big job you have taken on. A long and low Zephyr coupe is very nice.

    I took full measure and diagonal, I am impressed it did not move much.
    I think with a work like that it is not worth to weld bracing by what in nothing remains of rigid.
    I wanted a internal door picture to do the best. I do not want to cut the door as I see on the internet ...

    I think you're doing great with your English! And as long as you take LOTS of pictures, these guys will love it. Mike

    Amazing build. Laurent you could get more done faster if you got your shop dirty. It looks like you could prepare meals on the floor. Subscribed

    His Zephyr build was one of the big stand out projects for me that ive seen in all of my yrs on car forums. He has a really cool roadster as well. i follow him on instagram, but i dont think he posts on the hamb these days
