Projects 32 5W Build - The $4K Swapmeet Body / The Old Chrome Coupe

That would be the a dream come true for me, but there is nothing in the works at this point. I would love to know how to make that happen...

 

It would be great for people outside of the HAMB world to see it.
We’ve been absolutely spoiled getting to see it get built on here.
The details and pictures have been awesome.
Thanks again to Neal for taking the time and effort to share it with us.
Very much appreciated.
Cheers.

@Royalshifter will know

 

@NealinCA
You started your build thread
In Feb 2023 , It does not Look that any one directly connected with " TRJ "
Visit or Participate here on HAMB Broad ?? One of or the Biggest
Pre 64
Hot Rod's Traditional & Kustoms's .
I would say send a Email , But for many of Us have sent several with No replies !
Good Luck to you if someone has Direct connections With TRJ TO MENTION YOUR BUILD .
Same with few others one's & also @AULIZ work & build

 

There are a number of folk who have contributed to TRJ on here, I don't know all their handles but @J.Ukrop is a**** them. I believe Steve is a member here too, I don't know the best way but someone will have a connection.

 

The fact this isn't a Featured thread is also something to be addressed.

 

One more try on the full ch***is. I bought a new tri-pod, as I was having problems focusing on the chrome...it kept coming out blurry when I was further away trying to capture the whole thing.

This one came out better


Which kinda reminds me of this...

 

featured threads are completely automated. If it’s getting a lot of traffic it’s shown as a “featured” thread

 

I'll say it came out MUCH better... About as PERFECT as it can get! Just wondering how the owner of your next photo got his hot rod back down on the ground SAFELY... If my hemi was in this ch***is, you'd need a CRANE...

 

Is the body still in bare metal, have you thought of a clear plastic one, like the 1940 Pontiac?

 

Actually if you set your camera on a tripod and take a photo of the ch***is with out the body, then set the body on and take another photo with the body on I can combine the two and make the body see threw!

 

It would be cool to drag up an angle of it in bare metal, then photo the chrome at that same angle, then over lay the color in. Tri layer cutaway.

 

Yeah I could do that easy peasy. I actually thought when I re***emble the model A for the last time setting up a camera on a tripod for photos and making a ridiculous photo cut away

 

DAMN!!!! Thats Beautiful and organized to ROLL easily up in my trailer!!!!! LOL

 

Gettin' real late - Wanted to wish everyone and their families on the HAMB a MERRY CHRISTMAS! Mike Connelly

 

Wow! That could be the cover shot for Hot Rod magazine in the '50s.
