Tubular!

 

so i finaly got motovated to do some work. actualy i am hitting it hard trying to go to this years bonniville in it. i do not know if i will make it but you have to shoot for something. i am hoping ti have it in primer and when things die done at speed week i would like to brush paint it there. maybe even through some salt in the paint. we will see what happens. i finished up the transmission mount by making one of my rivoted mounts , finished up the fire wall, having the metal for the gas tank rolled up , finished the intake , exhaust and got alot more of the wood out and the body braced. i did not get a windshield frame with the car so i had to borrow /steel a mopar window frame from my dads collection of parts. the window frame looked to model a ish by being to square so i used and old 32 ford frame we had laying around for the top radised corners.i also added a body bead around the winshield opening . i think it looks alot better. i also am sealing up the floor right now and hope to be wiring the car in a week and a half. hope to seeya at bville

 

Looks killer Drew!

 

Awesome nice work!

Very Hupp....I mean hip.

 

here is the latest. i just finished the grille and radiator mount. i used a 65 mustang radiator from the local parts store 120.00 new . it fit luke purfact. i did have to get some mesh to put between the grille and the rad to hide the look of the bottom tank. i also mounted the head lihgts . they are 35 chevy i got at the charlott swap this year. i finished the trans mount that will look like it is rivoted to the frame. i finished up the drive shaft tonnel but i will be adding a little something to it. the seats are in and they are 35 or 36 chevy that i got at last years hershe swap with all of the material removed. i had to narrow them to fit in the hupmobile.now i will be starting to plump and wire it to go to bonniville in a few weeks. that is if i can continue to go on 4 hours of sleep at night. i will have to finish alot of stuff when i get back.

 

i almost forgot . look at the photo of the dash . that insert is the side trim off of a 57 chevy. they make great insert panels , there cheap , and they are easy to work with. you can normaly pick them up with a few bends or scratches on the edges at swap meats cheap.

 

*****EN ride!!

 

...this is one killer ride!...I really like everything about it.
...if you paint it at B'Ville, you should let all your friends help brush paint it, that'd make lasting memories.

 

I like it a lot.

 

killer ride!

 

Drew, The Hup looks killer! Good to see another car from Cincy on the salt this year.
