Projects 26 T Roadster Pick Up build Thread

Coming together nicely! Ohhhhh that chrome.....

 

This is spring ?
One of these days I think it will stop.
At least the snow pretty much melts when it lands now or shortly thereafter.

 

I know , it's exciting now that the work is done and I put the shock of the bill behind me.

Once it's paid for it gets easier

Really looking forward to seeing the parts I made from scratch all nice and shiny

 

Looking good. What hub caps can you use on those wheels?

 

A wide selection is available on the Wheel Vintiques website.
I have a set of 41 Ford bee hives.

 

Cool, thanks.

 

A nice pin strip would really set your wheels off.

 

Oh and I see a case of Bud Light in the back of one of the pictures, I thought every good Canadian drank Molson?

 

Outstanding!

 

You mean like this ?
My wheels and firewall are going to be the same ( In color at least )

Not this Canadian. Molson Canadian is skunk water and gives me a bad headache with just a couple of cans.
There are a great many better beers to choose from.
The Bud light is a deal I scored on my last trip to the Montana border duty free store.
2 - 24 packs for $30.
Not bad when you consider that a dozen up here in Alberta is almost as much.

Thanks Fred.

 

Going to have to change your avatar when it's finally done.

 

I like the choice of caps you want to run, I wish I had gone with them instead of my 46 items. Getting exciting Larry. JW

 

Yes just like that. Little details like that just push a car to the top. I have two sets of wheels for my 32, Alum. and steelies. One of these days the steelies will be striped.

 

Back from the blaster

 

I finally have my chromed parts back from Ogden Chrome.
Pictures don't do them justice.
They did an outstanding job on my parts.

Beautiful. Truely hot rod jewelry.
I'll lay them out and take a couple of pictures and then salt them away while I get the rest done.

Big tease. JW

 

Here's another little teaser for you. Front and rear wishbones and a shock- headlight mount. Larry

 

Chome dont get ya home, But it looks good on the way!!!!

 

You were right Larry and if those pics don't do justice they must be amazing. JW

 

The pictures I took with my IPhone are better than what Ogden sent me.
The smoothness and depth of the chrome is really amazing.
Ogden Chrome was a great choice.

 

mmmm, chrome

 

I,m glad that you had a better experience with Ogden Chrome than I did

 

WOW! Truly, fine art pieces.

 

Looks perfect! HRP

 

Thanks Danny.
I was going to unwrap all 11 pieces that I had chromed and take pictures, then wrap them back up and store them....
I decided to heck with that
I've got more important things to do like building my paint booth and body work
Larry

 

I can't wait to see them on the car!

 

"If it don't go Chrome it!" You saved a lot of time by chroming it first.

 

It's going to go just fine...eventually

 

My spray booth is under way.
9'x15' x80" high so it fits under the garage door.
Once I put doors on it and set up the exhaust system along with the plastic sheeting over it I'll be ready to spray primer.
It's sitting on an anti static canvas tarp 16' x 10'
Also installing some lights.

 

That's cool and when you are done you got some fire wood. JW
