Projects '51 Chevy build journal

I know what you are saying Rob, I have a 5 year old myself, between him, my job and the wifey, time is limited in my shop. But winter is coming and more time for the shop is coming ... I hope!

 

Yep still alive and on baby detail, work and more work!! Still got my 50 and made it to the Hunnert after a day and a half thrash on replacing the trans-which the new one grinds going into 3rd. But yep I'm still here and waiting to see some work done on the 51, not more work on a pink vespa or staged pics of a rented truck in an accident!!!

 

There he is!!! I knew I could lure you in by posting on Racrdad's thread! We have missed your humor around here! Where is my Hunert shirt and where are the pics????? How's the baby girl doing? Oh yeah, leave my pink Vespa out of this!

 

is this the view ? cars i wanna see them

 

We got Dimebag and Oprah back!! Things are looking up around here!!

 

hows this thing going ... haha. got my bench seat done, tuck and roll .. came out sweet . hey rob I have a guy in your area that might way to buy that thing i sold ya . if your not using it . hes in lerado ? not sure if thats near your trailer park ... hes a good guy .

 

we need updates .... ever since the guy from apple dies .. rob seems to be on an active member of the hamb ... dimebag what gives ...

 

Nothing new going on, working two jobs right now!!! Did work on the door and fender gaps a couple of weekends ago, what a huge pain in the ass! Then more work and the holidays have been keeping me busy.

 

oh yeah, please tell me thats not your tattoo!?!?!?!?

 

Your car is inspirational!!!

 

Thanks 240, progress has been little or none lately with the holidays and the fact that I just got hit head on at a stop sign last week on my bike! I think my bike has a magnet built into it, that or I just have shitty luck! Rebuild #2 coming up!

 

WOW the last pic of the rear window area looks great!

 

damn!

 

Sorry to hear that happen. I also emailed you inregards of a chop. I contacted you through your web site's email.

I hope you get back on the ban wagon a show us more pictures of this build.

You have a 4" chop all the way around right?

 

240, sorry, I didn't get the e-mail. The site is brand new, just got started a couple of days ago. We still have a few bugs to work out so you can contact me through my personal e-mail: [email protected] or send me a PM through here until I get everything worked out. And it is 3" all the way around.
Rob

 

Good luck on the business Rob . You boys will do good .

 

Man. Rob, glad to hear you are ok. I would be selling the bike about now...

 

Now that is the understatement of the year!! Goddamn, Rob, I had no idea you were ready (and able) to dive into the deep end of the pool.
Y'all absolutely made it look easy, like it was old hat to you.

Kudos, boys, kudos!!
I definitely have chop envy. Shit, here I am mounting the master cylinder/booster on the cowl, telling myself I am in deep enough already, etc. And BOOM . . . the boys out in Texas say "You think you've bit off a big hunk of Chevy? Well, watch this!"

Damn fine work. As if the Canadians haven't shamed me enough, you have to go and do this.

 

nice moredoor chop

 

Thanks Brer, glad to see you back again! Yeah, the Canadians are the masters of rust repair!!!!

Thanks Zed!

 

Thanks for the welcome from texas I,ve been watching the mordoor cars on here for a time. I have one in line here but it's also a very rusty maine car. I spent 2 years in texas and at this time of year I'm missing the weather.

 

cool car

 

How are you progressing Rob??

 

Well, I hate to admit it but I have been woking on my bike, should have it back on the road in a couple of weeks. Dang Holidays, work and kids been getting in my way. Did manage to get the new master cylinder installed in the '51last weekend thanks to help from Racrdad who was down helping me get the Harley back together.

 

Look'in good bro. Looks as if you are on your way..

 

After looking at some of the cars you have built, that means alot! Thanks!

Rob
