    Roy is on cloud nine and the '41 is all that he talks about. He loves dealing with a guy
    that is as honest and has a passion for kustoms. He can't get over how much you
    have done in such a short time. Years ago, when we were talking about his project I
    told him that if ya wanted it too be kool, just let Jeff build it for ya and when he is
    through it will be a work of art. Thanks for not making me look like a liar LOL!!

    May drive up this weekend sometime, I'll give ya a hollar.

    Happy Trails,

    Mick

    The 13" wires are hub caps and not real wheels, right?

    Its great you are building a custom of this type, but I am not seeing what the others here are.
    The roof has a large dip above the 1/4 window and forward of the top of the rear window, and the roof does not flow into the trunk below the rear window.
    The reshaped 1/4 window really needs to be rethought as it shape seems out of place and too jagged where you have joined the sections.
    All I can see is a large amount of filler work to get the flowing lines you seem to be after.

I am just posting pics of the work as it goes, so don't panic man i've got this..............not my first chop and I do this for a living...........all will be well, just posting some in the works pics.......... jeff

    I cant bring myself to post any pics , as some pick the flyshit out of the pepper, and phsyco analize shit way too hard and before the job is done, maybe it's time to take a breather from this board, DAMN I loved this place, now seems just a place for others to beat you down....... where are all the kool poeple anymore?

    I think it's Great that you show in progress pictures. Then later you can tell us how you go about fixing the imperfections before applying the filler. I think it would be neat to know how many grinder discs, cut-off wheels, welding wire etc., it takes for a job like that.
