  5. Subscribed- Great work I have the luxury of having Art Morrison Engineering fairly close and had them do my square tube "hard way" bends for my modified 34 frame rails. Continued good luck with your build Cheers

    Like most tech threads on the HAMB, 90% of this does not apply to any car I am likely to build. And like most tech threads on the HAMB, the other 10% is priceless to me. Thank you for posting!! Love your construction techniques.

    Love how you rolled the lip! Did you have to pie the tight inside radius? I can tell from the picture.

    Very, very nice.



    In the economy downturn I had to sell some equipment but NOT my bead-roller. Those things are great!!

    Yes, tons of pie cuts! Look at the picture of it clamped to the buck. You can see the cuts there.

    Why I love this thread:

    a) It's something I could see wanting to do, I've got a couple things in the project queue but a mildly channeled A (sedan) is somewhere on the wish-list.

    b) The fabrication in evidence is a little beyond where I am, but not out of reach, and it's good to see techniques and tools deployed in a way that I can see my way through. I don't quite feel like I have Yoda speaking backwards in my ear.
     
  24. Ya, what JEM said
