thanks for showing this project palle it really is a thing of beauty

 

Wow thats looking great Palle ! I cant wait for the bodywork to start!

 

wow! long way from when you first disassembled everything. almost looks to good to cover up with the body. glad to see this project moving along. also think the front wheelwell shape makes a huge improvement. always thought they looked out of place on an otherwise beautiful car. great job!

 

Was up all nite then up early for breakfast at a 1941 built Bun-N-Burger.
Looking forward to seeing the heads on something special.

 

very cool. great job!

Chassis looks great Palle. I can't wait to see the body back on it.

 

the body is back on the frame!
the body is very flexing, and we sometimes had a hard time open the doors.
so after we put it back, we tryed to align the body, and it seems to help.
what makes the body this soft, is the lack of reinforments under 3/4.
those where never made and put back, so i spend my sunday making new ones.
this is how it looked back then..









finally..back where it belongs!..and that perfect stance.



i only have one small 'problem'..aircleaners! i think theres like 1" room on top of the carb!



anybody has a scoop from a willys or something!!?? ha ha

thanks for looking

Palle....car looks great and it is nice to see you caring about stance,since it is almost a extinct characteristic of a custom these days.Thanks for posting the pics.

 

How great is this.
After at least 57 years there is once again a Cadillac Flathead engine in this great Custom Car. I bet if the car could it would put on a huge smile, and say "thank you for taking such good care"

Great to see the body back on the chassis, and I bet your fingers are starting to get very itchy to start removing the paint from the body to get it all to bare metal!

Perhaps somebody on here knows about a less tall period carburetor or a very low air-cleaner, or any other set up that will reduce the overall height of the engine.

 

Bravo! Bet you´re feeling pretty happy today!

 

Way to go Palle!! You're doing one hell of a job with this old lady

 

Congrats, Palle! Great work!

 

wonderful to see the progress.

 

Looks good Palle!

thanks guys!!...! we cant wait to start removing that paint!
i do think that it looks pretty nice, cause it was stripped when Bob bought it, and the areas we checked was good looking!
some areas are better than others though!
when you look at older pictures, you see that it is pretty wavy, especially on the left side!
but it can befixed..no problem!

thanks for your email Craig...maybe i should put it up here ha ha...i think we both are banned by the end of the day!

Sure Palle you can have this "aircleaner" for free

 

Thats looking great Palle!

 

awesome!

 

Can you lower the motor?

 

Excellent Palle!!

 

How about a Stromberg WW carb (for studebaker, I think...??) with the laid over airhorn?

 

thanks guys...

the engine could go a bit down, but not enough to fix the problem!
i might just put a sock on top of those carbs!

Wayne..i searched..but didnt come up with anything usefull! please school me!
