29 ford build

Had to stop usin my air tools at midnight cause they were making to much noise, so i made a new deck lid on the shrinker stretcher

 

Finished molding the body line

 

My workin buddy

 

Lookin' Good!

 

Thanks man

 

Finished the pitman arm.

 

Got the drums in today. Sand blasted them and got the old hub out. Time to drill the new bolt pattern and get them turned.

 

Your belt line is looking pretty good. How did you end up making it? I will need to do something like that for mine. Origianlly mine was a sport coupe, I suspect your's may have been too. Originally sport coupes had a vinyl top with a clip on moulding for the belt line.

 

Thanks. i took 20 gauge and bent the edges on it. Then pie cut where i wanted the curves to start. Its not that bad just takes a lil time. Im gonna do the other si
de here in a week or so and il post pics on how i make it.

 

45 buick drums i drilled for ford bolt pattern.. I have them mocked up so dont mind the position of the backing plate.

 

The chassis turned out better than i expected.

 

Started putting it back together today.

 

Today i worked on makin the dash fit.

 

One side is done. Im glad i went this way instead of buying the socal kit

 

Really nice looking .

 

Thanks alot man

 

Got the motor painted. And started assembly

 

Filled in where the filler neck was

 

I started on the passenger side body line today.

 

I know nothing about how to do metal work, so it always looks like magic to me. Cool stuff. Gary

 

Looking good!

 

Thanks alot.

 

Thanks alot gary. Its one of those things that you get better at with time and practice.

I dig that engine color!

 

Thanks man

 

I made this bracket last night for the panhard bar. I offset it a little so the rod wasnt so short

 

Still thinking Candy Gold? I shot a bike with HOK Pagan Gold over Cinder Red, (BC-11 I think) and it looked killer. Stay on it. I'm interested in seeing it done,
