Termites and Bowties- Early Chevy Group

OCD kicked in again. Moving the hinge forward just a bit should improve alignment enough. I decided it wasn’t good enough so here I go again. Front door frame fabrication X (I’ve lost count).

 

My door hinges don’t have the best gaps either. My driver side is probably the worst side, but my “doors” were just the putter skin. I ended up going with some cheap speedway ones. I also don’t have any weather stripping or anything around my doors lol

 

Remember guys - we're NOT building Boyd Coddington trailer queens... Keep up the GREAT work on not-so-easy to build, early Chevrolets as we know it!!

 

Oh I know lol, that’s why I said screw it and just painted the car, built in my garage and painted in a buddies.

 

Anyone know if this individual is still selling parts? The website is shut down.. I guess I could resort to calling but I would rather drive two states away than call.

I have contact info for a guy in KY who deals in old Chevy parts. He’s legit.
I’ll send you his contact info by email. I promised not to publicly list his phone number.

 

Thank you!

Gettin' real late - Wanted to wish everyone and their families on the HAMB a MERRY CHRISTMAS! Mike Connelly

 

I have not quit. Just took a break to spend time with my other hobbies. Weather here was lousy so it seemed best to stay out of the shop for a little bit. I’ll be back in the shop on January. Merry Christmas.

 

Merry Christmas fellas

 

During our visit to the Florida Keys, we stopped at Florida state park Bahia Honda. There’s a 1912 Flagler railroad bridge that was damaged in a hurricane and has not been used since the late 1930s. Before that hurricane, Chevrolet apparently promoted their knee action suspension with a film reel. I took a pic of the placard showing how they drove a sedan on the railroad. I guess the knee action could take the bumps from the railroad ties.
