Customs 35 Ford 3-window build

Did you modify the skirt to cover the wheek opening ? Looks great !

 

Kellan, what I like to see you get done before the show is fill in the holes where the old tailights use to be, of course the deck lid too.

 

I've been following your build for a while, and I have to say, your skills are very impressive!!!

Keep it up, and we all appreciate you taking the time to document and post your build!

 

Yes I did the same thing I did on the other side. i made a new lip the shape I wanted it and welded it on

 

I was planning on the tailight holes but Im not even going to do anything to the decklid. I have other things I want to focus on to have done on it for the show

 

Nice build

 

Sorry guys I was sick last week. Last monday a customer brought a planishing hammer in that didnt work. I fixed it and then I bought it. tonight I started on the firewall. The bottom was touching the bellhousing so I redid the bottom. I also took the engine and tranny out so it will be easier to work on the rest of the firewall.

 

Glad you are feeling better. Nice deal on the planishing hammer. Firewall hump look great.....Jim

 

Nice work your very talented...

I finished the firewall finally. I filled all the holes, got rid of the bump where the fuel line bolted on and buffed the body number plate. The local car show is coming up in the middle of February and my car is going in so I decided to drop a little nicer flatty in

 

someone following this great build help this top craftsman out with a cheap blower,it would just top off this great car and im sure it'd make his day

 

Firewall looks super, cool flatty.....Jim

 

Looks great! It's amazing how little details like a clean firewall can really send a car to the next level.

 

No wonder you can home late the last couple of nites. Looks super!!!

 

That's good to hear, I was beginning to think he was slackin' since you move down there.

 

Look at the pot call the kettle black. Im waiting to see some progress on your cars since you bought a new tv.

I even got dad to come down tonight and take paint off of the roof skin. I think thats the first time he has worked on a car in a long time

 

I started on the passenger garnish molding tonight. I will finish it tomorrow afternoon

 

The TV isn't the problem, it's turning 62 that was the problem!!!

 

Friday I finished the passenger garnish molding. Saturday I got my wheels back from the powder coater. I also started on filling the roof on saturday, I will post pics of that when I get it done. The roof should be done in the next night or two. I got the wheels and tires mounted and balanced and onto the car. I have also been working on a new steering box mount as well. Stay tuned as I finish things I will post up pics

 

Yeah!!!!!!!!!!! Lookin' gooooood!! Can’t wait to see it at the car show.

I see Klug's deck lid in the background.

 

fucking superb!!

 

This is turning out great. Keep it up!

 

Perfection!

 

Looks soooo nice......Jim

 

You are a really talented fellow, that has the envy of many of us.

Take care of yourself and it will take you far. This has been an incredible resurrection of a car many of us would have left for the sitting & rotting thread.

Hats off to you!

 

That looks really awesome,nice work!

 

Finally finished the roof tonight. I used a '55 chevy skin. Its not perfect but its not too bad

 

So very impressive!

 

It's not perfect..........but it's damned close.

 

Wow, that came out so nice......Jim
