So i decided to make it a RATROD!
haha no!

ok so heres whats up from the weekend the body is basically done and off the frame. now time for bodywork/paint. now i can tuch up on everything on the frame finish and paint it. then i guess its ready to roll





im lookin pretty ruff havent had a hair cut in a few months. no time.










its not as bad as it looks. steves just s real sloppy bodyman








so im shootin for the weekend for it being done. haha

 

it will get done faster if you get off the computer lets go

 

haha im out the door!!

 

no your still just as funny looking as before...

on the other hand.. steve looks better is this how you "motivate" him to do work?

 

steve is once a month if im lucky. hes too busy sleeping or having his mom serve him milk n cookies while shes tucking him into bed so he can sleep some more

 

Good luck doing the body work by your self.


Their wouldnt be any filler or fiberglass if the damn panels were straight...

Holy cow, thats some nice metal bangin.
Good job!
Steve///

 

haha i always do my own body work

 

This is great! Nice work!

COLOR? Drivre to the Rumblers Brooklyn show!!

 

i looked at some paint chips the other day. and i found this color buck skin tan i think i may go with that. and im thinkin about taking the car up their i dont know yet. what day is it?

 

everything is takin apart and gettin final prep.


the cowl is almost all done a little more hammering still.




just the visor and the polished aluminum hood are all that is left to fab.



also good news i found a new shop and i put the drugie in the slammer.

 

Incredible work guys!!! absolutely somethin from nothin.

I liked the comment about making a car out of bondo definitely not the case here but anyway, back when I was starting out right out of HS I was doing bodywork. I had some crazy long hair that was a PITA in the shop and one of the guys called me bondo jovi cuz he hated how much I liked to lay on the hod.
Hope you like this...I was horsing around with some artwork recently and came up with this:

 

haha pretty funny. my aunt actually dated him in highschool haha.yea i get the guys over to help out once in a while and all they do is complain but we have fun. the one guy steve the tall kid. i have him doing my pipes and i have an other guy steve (little steve) hes like my apprentice hes a great worker but i cant get him into hotrods he likes his dodge arrow? the other guys are their just to bust balls.

 

Pat, do a '27 t sedan next! Im sure it would be a whole hell of a lot easier without so many compound curves and what not, considering the roof is flat as the earth is round!

 

Ohhh so im not a great worker, just there to complain...


Just keep it up.....

Smart ass...

 

Complainin is just being too proud to ask for help.
here's my example (pardon the language)

Wimmins, they say "could you come here and help me with this" and the girls run over and they talk about it...

Men say "god freakin dill smackin felchbag get the fricking bingo ticket the frapp in the hole you stupid bolt. somn' bitchin dog nutted tranny is freaking gay cmon fuitbasket stay put and be done with it" then the fellas just jump in mother fuckering all over the place and after a few f-bombs it's done!!!

 

nice, the show is the Aug. 29th!

 

Absolutely amazing!

 

im gonna try n make it . but the car aint. ive been draggin my feet.
what are u bringin?

 

That's really great, gives me some inspiration to button up mine.

 

Man I wish I could do that kinda stuff. I need a set of door bottoms for my 50 Dodge pickup you wouldn't be interested in a little more fab work would ya?
