Projects What are you getting ready for the summer?

Ready for summer? My garage AC unit It's car season now in AZ, summer is HOT HOT HOT here.

 

I'll hopefully will have my 51 rolling by summertime. Just need to finish the top, mold a grill shell around grill bar, nose/deck,shave, figure out what tail lights to run, and hose her down with some primer.

 

Hope to be on the road this summer .......maybe

 

Just Finished the C-notch tonight and got the new rearend mounted in. Going to tackle the tranny swap this week. Putting in the new 3" drop spindles i bought from Russ meeks shop tomorrow. I will get some pics posted soon.

 

hopefully sell the Opel...to get the 33 Willys ready for race season

 

Beautiful, nicely done!

 

it wont be done, but it might be driveable

 

Ready for summer? Nothing. Can't work in my garage in the winter so my project won't be started till spring. At that point I'll be tearing my Essex apart for some much-needed changes. Engine/trans, rear end, steering, etc.

 

this is my winter project, and it will be back out this summer.

Looking good thunderbirdesq.

 

This.
The rain stopped for long enough today, that I was actually able to get out and drive it for the first time, other than in and out of the garage and driveway.
Everything has worked okay so far, put about 20 miles on it today, now to go over it and check to see if anything came loose or fell off.

 

Damn right you will...now stop fucking around with the tractor and get out to the shop!!

 

This...putting in ball joint spacers, taller springs, 4 speed, ladder bars, and a 9" rear. Plus have to get the fenderwell headers finished.

And this...rebuild engine, transmission, and front supention. Rewire.

And this...rear belts for the kids, and a new cam.

 

...finishing up a few things on my 37 Chev coupe and hopefully be drivin this 55 Chev p.u.....

 

Come April, I will be letting the neighbors know who the boss on the street is....

 

Will be all Gloss Black by March.

 

That will look sinister all black. I am going to go all black on my 51 Chevy. Post some pics when done.
