Termites and Bowties- Early Chevy Group

Damn @snoop74, I was hoping YOU were the Texan who shared that 481 MILLION split and the Missourian after taxes from the Powerball... Any more to finish up on your '35?

 

haha I wish it was me I didn't even know they finally had a winner. Nah not much done really; I've been looking for a 73-79 single cab chevy/gmc dually to build next

 

Fixed the minor door alignment problem today. I oversized the door hinge plate screw holes. That allowed fine adjustment of the hinge plate up and down and sideways. The small metal squares hold the hinge plate by pinching and will be welded in place now that the hinge plate is in the final position.
1934 Chevy Master 5W coupe.

 

Good work!

 

Nice job, aligning your doors! I will use your methods when the time comes to mount my doors - appreciate this, Jay!

 

Great work Jay!

 

What would be a fair price for this seat?
I have the opportunity to buy this 1939 Chevy master sedan front seat. I have seen it in person and the pictures are a fairly accurate representation. It will need complete upholstery work and repair of seat springs. Split seat back folds forward. It seems pretty solid. He has the decorative molding that fits around the lower edge of the seat (not pictured).

 

Well, rats! That seat was a few inches too wide. I didn’t buy it.
Today was a good day in the shop. I got the driver door hung and it lines up nicely.
Here’s a short video. VIDEO LINK

 

I really wasn’t happy with my first attempt at framing the doors and side windows. My 2nd attempt is going much better.

 

Looking real good Jay!

 

Nice work Jay!

 

Little Sunday cruise

 

Went to gathering at the roc in Oklahoma. Great show, almost lost the trailer first day, then second day it rained and then my starter shit the bed lol. Had to lay in the wet street and fix it

 

Looks great! Road trips are about getting it done in spite of adversity!
Love the International. I had a '40 D model for a ranch truck for years. I hauled a barn we dismantled over the Sierras with it in two trips. Great old trucks!

 

Lost the trailer the last 200 miles, took a hub off the driver side and drove the remaining

 

One day for sure, I'll meet you at the Gathering at the ROC brother... A show that I cannot afford to miss! @NeilinCA, (from our HAMB) brought his vintage Detroit bare steel '32 Ford 5 window coupe there recently and afterwards, immediately tore her down completely for Show and Shine paint, many HAMBers waiting patiently for the outcome. Nicest original steel body that I have EVER witnessed! She looks as great as a new Brookville Roadster repop!

 

Cmon with it I look forward to it. That’s super cool is there a thread for it? My starter shit
the bed Friday after it rained for like 30
Mins had to lay in the street to fix it lol
