polishing a turd!! model a four door pics

a few months ago I drug this unit home! looks good huh? ya just can't buy much with a hundred dollars any more these days. I also picked up a early olds w/hydro that the homeboy spaceboy delivered to me via ebay. I have been building my "t" as well so I have just been doing this while my shiny paint is drying on my street rod. Pics of that soon. so the sedan body and frame and an olds motor is the project here are some pics

 

a lil off the top.

 

frame pics just a stocker with flat crossmember..

 

stepped up rear... boxed side rails

 

on all fours

Looks great! HRP

 

I'm sorry but I can't find the turd in your pictures.

I do see the start of a seriously cool car though!

Nice Unit! What happened to the coupe?

 

it's in a super to secret location under th staircase collecting dust. waiting for that osr vibe. hehehehe I was thinking of putting it up by yours so they can be twins.

 

Your shop and lift look great, and what a turd. Sure makes the slab next to house that I have to do my work look sorry. Life must be tough to have to work in such rough conditions.

 

Nice stance.
"while my paint is drying".... lol. you sure dont waste much time,do you? Kool!

 

Tub looks cool! your a hoarder

 

Wow. That's killer. You are a machine.

 

looks great. its must be nice to have a frame bench to work on

 

Don't look like no stink pickle to me!!!

 

looking good....

 

I never thought it was a turd but all the street rodders that hang around here called it that and asked why I did not leave it at the scrap yard. now they are in line to buy it funny how that works... drew

 

Man...I want a turd!!!

 

That looks gret but you must be getting old..... Building all these Hi Ones...........

 

Ya me too I'll take a turn if it looks like that
Nice work

 

That is a 1929 Fourdor isn't it? I could just make out the firewall extention for the gas tank in the pickup pile. Nice to see someone make something from "junk". Thanks for the photos!

 

THER'S ONLY ONE HI ONE IN ILLINOIS

 

Yep, that things gotta be a "seller" because you wouldn't build anything with that much altitude for yourself. Between you and Bob, no living creature over 3" tall in the road escapes decapitation. I almost forgot, i DO have a coupe body there, don't i?! Just throw "that intake" in it and i will be up to get it.

 

Got any updated pics for us of the turd?
Can't wait to see em.....Shiny

 

kindof a short work weekend but headlights mounted and some f1 shock mounts kinda cut down hard to see and a f1 box of an unknown year.

 

steering box
