So, I thought this might give a little inspiration to those that have lets say a less than good body to start with. I had this real rough model A and a pile of stuff I was holdin onto to build a low buck rod. I needed money to pay off some bills so I could get into building my 32. one week, and a lot of help from a friend and this was ready to ebay. I just sold it and I am a little closer to having a nice 32 to cruize next year.
A week? At that rate You should be able to mine your own iron, build your own foundry, smelt your own steel, build your own presses/dies and pop out a new '32 in what...a month maybe! Shades of Monster Garage. Terry
I saw that on e-bay. Cool! Most people don't realize that if you actually go out in the garage and do 3 things a night that eventually you will have a car. Sitting there staring at it, talking about what you are going to do to it "some day", and drinking a beer don't count as the 3 things either. ha ha ha Congrats on your achievement!
Ive seen pics of most of the cars you have built. Great looking ride as expected. Im sure your skills and motivation are an inspiration to alot of guys on here to get up and start wrenching. They are for me at least.
Inspiring is an understatment. One week... Very nice ride, and I hope it did accomplish what you set out to do in the first place. Can't wait to see your 32 when it is finished in a couple of weeks...
Couldn't you have lied and said a month? I haven't done **** in a week and I've got 5 projects in the air. Wait, I did get the springs off the parts car, took 3 days. Sorry, did I mention "Nice Job" because I mean it!
If you ever need a place to stay for........I don't know.......let's say a week........give me a shout, I've got a couple of projects that you could get knocked out. Nik
thanks, it does run and drive. Needs final touches like shocks and a trunk latch but its a driver. I dont know if the guy that bought it is a hamber.And yes I did sleep. 4 hours a night.
I was watching that on ebay....I love the finished looked. Think about what it just sold for & times that by 4 you could vacation a 11 months out of the year with a lil above average yearly income...lol
Damn Jim, you don't screw around do ya? One of these days I gotta get over there and dig through your junk pile. ha ha ha
You need your own cable show. Seriously, Dude, at least have a buddy video the process and sell DVDs. Teach us how to be half as fast and half as good. Please! BTW, beautiful car! --Matt .
i agree with Matt... i thrashed out that willys PU in a lil under 4 months of "being on that project" between side jobs to finance the build and keepin mama Fiddy happy doin chores and whatnot... but MAN,,, you have a gift...the small details on this car are incredible here. totally inspiring. T
