Thanks Kev, As you know my friend this has been a long journey and I can finally see the end in sight. 4 day weekend for me coming up. Both hands moving!

 

Oh my - that's just so sweet!

 

Very cool

 

Man Dale that really looks hot!

 

Very nice compliment Ryan. Some get it. Some don't. You do. Cheers!

 

Spreader bar, Push T, and 41 Willys taillights mounted. Didn't have much time to do more.

 

Can you make a little time to roll it outside and take some big pics??!!!!

 

I can't right now. Maybe when I get a few things bolted on I will. My garage/shed has a 4 inch drop going out into gravel. I would never get it back in by myself. Soon though. Anyone seen one of these before?

 

Neither. Museum piece. I'm just going to look at it when it's done. That is all. Thanks for stopping by Rob. ha! What truck are you talking about? Get something new I don't know about?

 

Very nice Dale , your doing a great job

 

Thank you Marshall. That's the nicest thing you've said to me in years. I appreciate it. I ain't the same guy I used to be. Didn't get much done tonight. Some scut work that's not work showing and cleaning all the frickin' paint off the threads for my Eelco Fuel cap. Always remember to tape shit up if ya don't want paint on it.

 

I found one in search...it's a few posts down from Henry...unfortunately no info...I suspect its a Radiator Cap Ornament...

Fantastic Hotrod you have on the go there @curbspeed

 

Not the same thing Stogy. This devil head is a shift knob. Just looking to see if it has been see to be a new item or old. It looks old to me . I like it regardless. Thanks for trying though.

 

I think this is either or actually as it is a threaded stud...I did also find another posting by the same fellow that also showed the flat devil figure also with the one I posted and he said he reproduced them however it was a little unclear which one...and yes with Hoodlumism and Hotrod bad...its more than fitting to your application.

 

Interesting. thanks

 

Painted all the interior gloss black yesterday. It will get panels covering most of it. Installed 1938 Ford Deluxe dash, 1948 F-1 steering box, steering chrome column, and my original Bell wheel. It coming along. tomorrow chrome drag link and steering arm., Trunk hinges and decklid too

 

That is lookin' pretty damn cool Dale! It's awesome to see it all coming together. Let me know if you need an extra set of hands for anything.

-Tim

 

Thanks Tim, I'll call you soon and we can bs some.

 

Gar-damn that looks good. Itch'n to see that screen installed.

 

That's going to be a lot later on the screen and glass. I got a lot of other things ahead of that job. It will happen in due time though.

 

This coupe is so cool, fun seeing it come together

 

Set grille, Walker radiator and chrome splash aprons yesterday. Still need to button up a few things. I need some fasteners for grille shell. I will eventually buy a Drake chrome grille shell but this will do for now.

 

Beautiful detail work..nicely done!

 

who does your chrome stuff, and are you happy with it?

looks fantastic... yer Pop would be proud !!!

 

The one place I used to get it done in Tucson is closed but I have been using Royal Plating for the last bits I had done. They do nice work. Thanks for the comment about my dad. He was definitely traditional in every sense of the word.

 

Thank you Ryan for the props. I know that this thread is about the longest one in history. I had my 29 rpu for years so there was never a real hurry on this coupe. Since I sold the rpu last June I have ramped it up so I can get back behind the wheel of a hotrod. Perseverance will pay off. Again, Thanks
