Hot Rods Big Daddy's 55 2 door wagon gasser

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by Lloyd's paint & glass, Jul 1, 2024.

  1. What up pricks? I'm good, had to put the phone down and have a break lol. I've not done much to my car, customer stuff comes first, and there isn't enough hours in the day, this dark at 5:30 shit is for the birds. I did finish one of the bucket seats. Cut down the back and did diamonds with orange thread. Gonna be a LOT of diamonds to sew this winter. I bought 10 yards of black vinyl, and I'm hoping it's enough! Thanks for the phone calls and texts guys. 20241104_105330.jpg

    But won't that seat leave diamond imprints on your ass? The chicks will really dig that.:eek:

    Looks great though.

  6. Thats why you only let chicks ride if they're wearing fishnets. Then you can blame it on the fishnets. Lol

    Welcome back. I guess it's only fair that you call us pricks. I know I don't like to be a prick, but I've been told that I am very good at being one. Keep on keeping on. And just like everyone telling you how to build it, we'll wait until you have a ton of time and effort into the interior before we tell you how you should have done it.

  12. I'm impressed at how different the seat looks with the hi back removed.

    Me too @Lloyd's paint & glass,

    Did you take pix of how you rebuilt the seat frame when you removed the top section?

  17. Hey Mike :cool: no sir I didn't. When the foam came off the seat back, there's a 1" pipe that makes the radius you see on the cut down version. The high back section is sheet metal, all i did was follow the radius along that pipe with the cutoff wheel. It's kinda like they made a high back seat out of a low back seat, and i just reversed it lol. I'll take pictures when I do the other seat.
     
  18. What were they out of?
