Projects Martin Ford´32 5 Window Build

As Hotrodray posted a link to a drawing for the rear fender holes yesterday I started to measuring them up and while doin it my friend Jon showed up.
He had a new cellphone with an build in projector so this is how we did the holes.

 

Thats awesome!

 

Are cell phone projectors HAMB friendly?
That's a pretty neat way of doing it.

 

What cell phone is that, I must have it!!

Mike, right or wrong. This is how I finishing the welds.
I had to adjust the subrail to get the door closing properly.
Here I used the tig and I make sure that both sides of the cut lines up together before welding.

 

The disc on the side is the one that I start with if its a mig weld and when there is a tig weld that doesnt build so much I start direct with the flap disc.

 

Weld gone with the flap disc, could get a little wavey as it such a small surfice bein grind
.

 

Changing to this low rpm machine , 80 grid and make sure the hole disc lies flat to the metal. Grinding on the edge of the paper is a no no.
This removes the waves .

 

Done.

 

amazing, Martin

 

Thanks Brady

Found these old marchal's on the second floor, I have no idea of what car they come from.
They have a little lense on the top, maybe for turnsignal indicator.
Any how, they works great sizewize.

 

Just loving this build!
Anything new happening with your wheels?

 

Martin

Thanks for posting your process!! What amazing work , man you can lay down one nice bead with the tig.

How does your door fit in the area you welded. Mine will need work wide at the front .

Martin

Did you buy a new windshield frame? if so where did you get it and how is the fit?

Mike

 

Thank Heaven for traditional Samsung Galaxys ! lol
I suspect that is a clever idea!
Davo.

 

Yes, last friday I found a guy with a large cnc mill and he is going to help me out with the final machining.
Still miss the front aluminum hoops but I got a text mess yesterday from Mike Curtis that they should be done till next week, he is making them thinner. And then it is shipping time .

 

My driver side door did hit the subrail in middle bottom but the passenger door was better.
The doors was about 1/2" to far out in the lower rear corner but Tomas just put some wood in the middle between the b-p and the door and bend with a hand in the top and a foot in the low corner.
I was in shock to see how soft the doors are

It is the stock windsheild, it in a really bad shape . Rotten underneth .

 

A-post after been choped long ago by some drunk american

 

Wink Wink. Looks good.

 

Outstanding!

 

Started with the top trim for the shell today, it needs to be longer and another shape to fit the 32/adler front.
Some hours still before its done.

 

Something else .
