thanks 34 coupe !

thanks taildraggin!!

dead end thanks!! using a bead roller ,english wheel and shrinker stretcher .

thanks you Jim ! see ya soon!

well we are kicking around the idea of sweeping the body line in the cowl up ward.

 

I like it, maybe someone with a better eye will make a suggestion but to me it's good

 

That's a nice subtle touch on the line change Flop.

 

I like the sweep, a lot. It marries up nicely with the curve in the cowl. Gives the truck a more elegant look. And if you're Z-ing the frame in front, it could marry nicely with that too.

 

Im still not sure exactly how i am going to do the frame, my roadster was z'ed in the back with a dropped axle in the front and I really liked how it sat, I want this one lowered but not real low. I will prob give it some rake with the tire choice also

 

thanks spdjnky! its not to noticeable up close ... you are gonna see if from 10 feet away thats what i like about it !

thanks voodoo !

i def think it adds to the truck Ian!

Beautiful work, Flop and I love that sweeping lower cowl bottom!

 

damn, thats looking killer man! YOur work and quality is always amazing! I'm really really digging that slooped from cab piece!

 

I normally cry when I see someone channel a car because they usually hack it all up. But not this time. The job you did is exactly how it should be done. Good job. With fenders on it, it is going to really stand out.

 

thanks daveo!

cant wait jim!!

thanks Mr Radcliffe!

appreciate that lowpunk!!

thanks corn fed ! i always cringe when i hear channel as well! Mainly because it is a ton of work that most people generally skip and make up with loads of square tube and b/s welds to the body !


and the back of the cab is pretty much ready to go !

 

Great work! cant wait to see more of the 31.

 

Flop you have the Eye for detail!! and the skills to make it happen. Sure like what you did on the lower cowl!! Great Job!!
