Projects Enough monkeying around: let's build a 5w, or another 4dr bites the big one.

Digging the chop. The y block only makes it sweeter.

 

well dig on this then...

 

yeah, I'm digging it!

 

Hell Fire! Nice.

 

That poor car made it 78 years...

 

Haha, yea I better not overhear any douchebag at a cruise night tsk-tsk'ing about wrecking a perfectly good car either... I'll smack a douche!

 

Damn that's lookin' good !!!!!!!!!!

 

Awe shit, he doesn't rest!!!!

That looks killer Andy. I really want to lean my pillars back a bit when the time comes to take a little more out of mine.

 

I'm resting now! Yes, the lean is where it's AT!

 

Ya and when you tell them what you started with, they will think your making it sound worse then it was, or "then you should have used those parts for restore one...." haha!

I love this thing! That's what I say!

 

Yeah, well before getting a felony smacked on ya, I'd just tell em how you bought it from a museum and all the extra parts you didn't use, you melted down to make hot rod parts

 

HAHAHAHAHA I'm with you on that one!

 

Nice 4dr!

 

You're making that thing your bitch Andy! Schlap dat ass!!

 

shaping up to be a pretty wicked ride... definitely going to be watching this one.

 

Thanks a bunch guys,

Guess it's a good thing I'm all talk!

 

still looks like a 4 door..
juuust kiddin im jealous

 

Any idea on a color yet Andy? I'm sure you have something in your head....

 

looking awesome. I really like the chop. great work.

 

This is my #1 most favorite thread on the hamb.



And what JJ said...what color?

 

title card ? better leave a glove box and air vent so it will still be a fourdoor

 

Your car looks awsome with the chop .....how much did you chop it? ....looks like 4.5" great thread man!!

 

This thread is a major inspiration, keep up the good work!

 

I cant believe that you built that thing from a four door...since christmas. In your free time with two jobs.

I picked up my custom plymouth about the same time and I havent had time to rebuilt the master cylinder yet.

I am not worthy of this site...Awesome car - love the Y block.

 

Thanks again guys, you're really too kind.

Chop is a hair over 5.5" over a stock coupe height, I had to take a little more out of the B pillars as the 4dr ones are taller by about 3/4"

I'm not sure on a color yet... probably just primer for now, as cool as it looks in pics, this body is still pretty rough to be smoothing out and painting shiny, at least right away that is. Maybe a low-buck drag/lakes car inspired brush-paint job? maybe just the same brown primer I've been using to cover the bare metal areas. we'll see...

paperdog, it came with a good 4dr title, but I think I'm gonna hang it on the wall and push it through the DMV as a coupe with the number on the frame. It's *ALMOST* still visible. One of the few benefits of living in NY state.

 

go mang go

 

Yeah that Title is from like 1958 right?

 

Something like that... Matt actually used one from 1923 for his T!

 

Why does this 5 star thread only have 3 stars?
Haters gonna hate I guess?

*edit* I guess I shoulda voted first. It's got 4 now. Go Andy, Go!

 

I gave it one start because I want the car back now. Just kidding...I never rate threads.
