    Did some more work this weekend. Slowly picking away at it. I did some more on the floors and started putting in a battery box.

    Here are 2 more pictures. My 9 year old daughter just came down to the garage. She saw it and said cool dad.:cool: She's my future hot rodder. I'm slowly teaching her about old cars and hot rods. IMG_20180421_194421.jpg IMG_20180421_194442.jpg

    Your body closely resembles the European Deuce that had suicide doors. Where the Hell are all of these jewels? Don't recall ever seeing one ! Good luck.

    Would there be much cutting up to "slip" a SBC/700R4 between the sheets, lower it a bit, then drive it like ya stole it? That is a beautiful ride as it sits. Oh, I forgot Vintage Air a/c-heat. That makes it a year-round cruiser. Now, I have to buckle my non-traditional seatbelt and get ready for the flak. LOL

    Well have not been doing too much. I got the front post looking good. When I did the chop. It made it not look right. I also did some work on the rear of the body and have been doing some dolly work. IMG_0131.JPG IMG_0132.JPG IMG_0134.JPG IMG_0139.JPG IMG_0141.JPG IMG_0045.JPG IMG_0044.JPG

    I like what you did with reshaping the back and the beading. Looks nice.

    So not been doing too much. Doings small things here and there. I finally got around to bending the steering arms and got some steering linkage on. I will still need to magna flux them. I also need to get the pitman arm on the Vega box figured out. The ford tie rod don’t fit right. The hole seems a little too big. So if someone knows. Where to get pitman arm to fit the 35 Ford tie rod part number would be great. I did also work on the driver side door some. IMG_2726.JPG IMG_2728.JPG IMG_2733.JPG IMG_2732.JPG IMG_2309.JPG

    Your looking very good and have accomplished a lot. On the pitman arm I am pretty sure ( can not find my invoice) I used Speedway part # 7022924- SS ( stainless $74.99) there is also Part # 7022924-PLN (plain $54.99). Would like to see more pictures on your door repairs. Mine are also crap.

    Love what you are doing ! Those mounts are very artfully done -and they aren't going anywhere !
