    I never took any pictures of the frame, buts it was painted here too. I decided to POR-15 the inside of the frame before paint. What a Mess! My brother helped me with it. I built some duct tape dams in the cross members to keep it contained. As soon as I started pouring it in, it blew the dams out and proceeded to make the biggest mess ever. By the time we were done I had that stuff all over my hands, arms, and knees. I'm still wearing it off as I speak.

    Loaded the first batch of parts in the ol' parts hauler.

    This post is now up to date with the current state of the build. Our great family friend Vince and his dad Dan over this weekend and help put the chassis back together. With their help along with my dad and I we pretty much got the basic chassis assembled. I can't thank those guys enough for helping so much.

    I use it all the time and know how shitty it is to get off, but I'll be damned I was wearing more of it than was in the frame rails.

    The curse of POR-15. I love the way it flows out, its great stuff.

    Thats cool JJ. I love 33-34 3 windows and yours is lookin mighty fine.

    Do you dream about using a drill or mill? I have never seen so many holes. Patience and skill are obvious. Great job young man.

    Thanks guys. Not really anything major to take pictures of. Just wrapping up little things on the chassis. Hopefully the body will be done this weekend if the weather permits.

    When I opened this, as I read the first post, my first thought was "young kid, '32 Tudor, Oh,oh. Double Z, tractor grill, yadayadayada". Then I scrolled down and saw the Bakarat car, thought "No, this is gonna be ok". Hell of a nice Tudor!

    Sure hope you get it done in time for Speekweek. I'm anxious to see it in person! Been drooling over your dads Model A pickup at Bonneville for years.

    Thanks man. I hope I get it done too. I still drool over my dads truck. I can't help myself from grinning and laughing when I get to drive it. Hopefully my sedan can give me the same feeling.

    Mudtastic!

    I wanted to get this car pimped up and out by the weekend, so I got it as good as I could in 2 days. It still has some lumps and bumps on it but I'm happy with it.

    Bodywork: I got the majority of the big panels wrapped up the first day, but was really dreading getting all the post fixed up and primed. Thats when I got a call from my brother saying he was on his way up. Little did I know when he got there he was ready with a mud spreader and sandpaper in hand. He got to work and finished all the posts up for me. He also helped me all through the priming and blocking, and painting the inside and under the car. Thanks man

    Then we ran out of paint for the outside.

    ITS PAINTED!

    I ran and got some more paint this morning.

    My dad (Lytles Garage) came up and we squirted the outside of the body.

    Thanks POP.
