Projects Rusty 47 Ford Reserection

Build thread????? Hell this here ought to be a movie!
"Watch as Dr. Steve takes the deceased body of decrepit old fat wino Fred and transforms his patient into Mega Porn Star Voluptious Gina."
Might not sell though, the story line is too far fetched to be believable.

 

lol, now thats funny!

 

Not much..maybe a couple of hours on Thurs and or friday nights, and usually the whole day on Sat...did 10 hrs this Sat but paid for it on Sun!

Thats the funniest comment in this whole thread Thanks I needed a good laugh!!

 

Thanks,hows the 40 coming along ? I havent noticed an update in a while?

 

"Dr. Steve"... hmm Maybe you need a white lab coat.

10 hours. Wow.. I wish I could have that much energy!
You kids..

How's the building working out with the power and heat?

 

Not bad the furnace heats the place up pretty quick...once I get the attic insulated it will stay warmer ...hopefully I can get at that before next winter, and I still have to insulate the other garage door as well....and I need a better 36" man door too lol ! But its good enough for me,I just dont want to paint if its below freezing I dont want to have to stay out and keep turning the furnace on/off never put a thermostat on it yet too busy workin on the car !!

 

Looks good. The yellow paint looks like someone pissed all over your car.

 

Haha thats why I really didnt want to post some pics till I got a fresh coat of epoxy on it! But I was gettin harassed about the lack of pics lately !

 

Lookin good man! Keep the updates comin!

 

Just when I thought you might be slacking off! Great work Steve!

 

Hay that is coming along great.. I find we always fine tuen stuff we dont like.. Im seening stuff in mine i dont like.. and no!! Never touched it!! lol.. busy at shop..

 

Ya gotta make some time Fitzee!!!

 

Looking good there koolkemp! And yes, we all love pics. Keep up the great work!

 

Thanks Farmer ! Gonna try and get some epoxy on it this weekend !

 

Nice metal work. Rusty tin takes a long time and a lot of patience to fix. Floors were pretty good at the start. I replaced everything from the toe board to the tool bed with the exception of the axle hump. I used some patch panels from EMS for the dog legs and 1/4 panels. Chop looks nice. I like the 59 chevy dash. Should be kick ass when done. Keep up the good work!

 

Thanks ! I will put a few pics up later with some primer on it.

 

I hope we're not pressuring you too much. Encouragement is one thing, but jeez...lol. Kind of like a long distance runner gettin' pushed for a thousand miles by a bulldozer...lol.

Btw...kinda funny too...the guys that catch up on the thread..."I just took two weeks to read the whole thread, and...........lol.

And the comment on how this should be a movie: My feelings exactly...just didn't know how to put it into words!

Steve, are those Dodge Lancer caps on the front? Are those the caps you plan on using? Do you have all four?

And as always...nice work. - Rick

 

I always look forward to your updates. Keep up the great work!

 

Thanks Rick, I think they are the cheapo Lancer repops, there are only 2 of them, they were on the 51 Chevy when I got it,but they wouldnt stay on the orig rims and I put some 14's on the chev. I just stuck them on here to hide the rusty ol rims on the front..not sure if I will use them ,I would like to find something a little older if I can..

Thanks eh!!


Heres a few pics of yesterdays fun and games...I forgot to buy more activator for the primer, so it still needs another coat but it still looks better than it did. I will fill some pinholes and correct a few little spots before I get the last coat on, then the body work on the body shell can sit for a while as I move on to other stuff (no shortage of that!)

Blurry lol







How do you like mu big round butt?




Gonna have to get some lowering blocks made soon...

 

Nice!

 

I sure like it when it's all one color. Even if it's primer. Yours to. Great work. Wish you lived around here.

 

I like big butts and I cannot lie,
You other brothers can't deny,
That when a car drives in with a itty bitty taillight and
A round thing in yo face, you get sprung, hun.
I wanna pull up front cuz I notice that butt was stuffed. . .

Baby's got Back!

 

COOL!
A coat of primer is a wonderful thing for boosting the mood of a project.
Looks good, man.
The skirts really add a nice touch.

As for the big butt.....I ain't touchin' that figuratively or literally!

 

There we go!! thats looks the part in one color.. What primer are you using.. Up here everthing is changed now to low VOC and I find it hard to get a good hi build.. I been using Cars systems primer for years. sence they changed to low VOC it is no where as good..

 

Looking good. The single color really brings it all together.

 

+1,nice job!

 

Looks great Steve!

 

Nice ass.

 

Lookin' good Steve, hope you have a great day tomorrow on your birthday.

 

I think steve is the birthday boy today!
Happy Birthday!
