Norm's Auto Body Rochester NH old photos

Awesome work for sure!

 

He has kept his 32 3 window for quite a while but this might be one he will just freshen up and move it along. Certainly a color from the late 60s - 70s..

 

What Norm does to cars, Pablo Picaso did to stretched canvas.

 

looks like this one is done !!

Paul built my 32 pick up. He is a stand up guy, does nice work and his shop is like a time capsule!

Rick,thanks for all the incredible info that you share!

 

man does some great work the 50 ford conv were the tops of the doors rolled with no windows ?there was a blue ford in the late 90,s that looked a lot like it it had a caddy in it and the guy that had it said it came from new england car was done right

 

The one Norm buit had a Caddy motor. I think these 3 images are updates on Paul's original

Also what the chopped Merc looks like the last time I saw it

 

While I'm waiting for Paul to finish up a new batch of cars this winter and there is nothing much happening carwise for me due to this never ending snow... I've been playing in photoshop with his old cars transporting them back to the good old days. Obviously I have way too much time on my hands...

 

Ummm, nice contours on that model, I like the shape as it tapers back!


Norm's output over the years is phenominal! What neat cars!


Later, Kinky6

 

It's really cool how you can put cars in old photos!

he was working on the 'vette when i was there, my A is wearing it's hand-me-down valve covers. i spent a while looking at all those pictures one the wall thinking, wow, what an incredible body of work. nice fella too.

 

thank you soooo much, that's my car!!!!
I so need to visit this guy and talk with him.

I cannot thank you enough, I guess a trip to NH is in my future.

 

I just called Paul as I had to speak to him about the black and red ford/deusenberg replica he built as I am it's present owner. He was super nice and told me I could call him anytime.

What a great guy an a super talent! I know if I am ever in NH I will be looking him up.

 

checked in on Paul today

He has a 36 3w coupe scattered all over the floor ...making plans for a winter build. A cherry32 5w almost finished that he plans to keep. A 51 Vic that had been in a garage since 64 with a Cad motor & LaSalle trans. a 39 or 40 coupe with an Olds..

 

the next level

 

Paul took this in trade today on a truck. ( not the one one in the snow bank )

 

Thanks for the photos.
Great guy with a creative mind.
Helped me out.
