Customs Jeff Myers-Ian Berky shoebox chop

I removed the t-slot molding tonight. Thanks to the advice of Chris Casny the removal went rather easy.

 

I think that loosing the vent wings on that car make the build look too "new" Great on my AD Chevy truck but not so great for a traditional shoebox Ford if it is to stay traditional.
With the wings gone you get some extra wind buffeting at highways speed on most rigs. The laid back windshield on my 48 negates most of that and I get poor air circulation in hot weather.
Damn I like what you have done with that car and wish I could talk a friend out of the one he has out in the weeds behind his house that he will never do anything with.

 

Great work arturo,love the chop and the direction its going.It was awesome to meet you at GNRS,and shoot the shit about our rides.When you coming out to san diego and go cruising with me and greg?

I hope to have the doors done and in primer by the weekend.

 

Can I have those fenders? Haha! Mine need some minor work.....Looks great!

 

SHit man it looks great. coming along nicely. please leave the vent windows. they are worth all the work to get em to fit.

anyway it was nice hanging out with you down in San Diego. cant wait to see this all come together.

 

Get it rolling and come on down to the Round Up !!! Looking GOOD !!!

 

Lookin' finer than a moonlit redhead on white tuck-n-roll. Carry on!

 

Great looking car, looking forward to seeing it done.

 

Chop, Hood, front fenders, trunk and now the doors are done!
All that's left is the rest of the body. (yea that all)
We will start kncoking it out this weekend.
it's never easy.

 

Damn, looking great. What an amazingly proportional chop that is.

 

Hey come down to the Texas Thaw Saturday.DRAGS BABY! I'll buy you a beer!!!!!!BUCKD

 

Body is basically stripped and molding welded up. Making nice progress.

 

Thanks for the update she is looking good. Looks like it will be back on the road soon.

 

Loving the progress, nice work!!

 

Thanks Mick! Hope to have it ready in time for your show.

SlmLrd, thank you Man!

 

Debating on losing this frenched antena.

 

Looking good dude!

 

the antena is a hard decision...It would look good with a actual antena poking through yet it distracts the eye from the all over smoothness of the ride,maybe because there isnt any paint on it etc..I love frenched antenas ,so with paint and a nicely executed pin stripe it may just pop

 

Jambs and windows are sandblasted. Trim holes welded up. Making progress everyday.

 

If you do some progess every day you will sone ready

good work

/Stefan

 

A little more finish work and hope to have the roof finished tomorrow.

 

I like the antena, I would add another one.

 

I agree with Mick I really like the frenched antenna reminds me of the old days in SoCal (makes me smile)BUCKD

 

Looking good Art, see ya a Round Up...
