You went to all that trouble getting cad quarters for that? HAHAHA just kidding that is going to make the bumper look wayyyy better.

Very cool indeed!! BTW, I hope you never get this car finished 'coz I enjoy watching your skills. But then again, I spose there's always other projects to start after this one. Now get back to work
Ya it has! I was in Texas for Christmas chasin steers and queers. Glad ot check on all the progress. The bumper guards are mint. I woulda just put em on a copy machine and shrunk them but you like to cut and weld.
Awaiting real pics of the qrtrs. Looks good so far. Is that a '59 Cad I spy in the backround? Classy fella you are.
thanks guys not gonna be as easy as expected !! haha what the hell else is new! i wondered where the hell a been slownlow! hope ya had a good one yup hit the nail on the head docc dont worry bash many ideas for a 39 ford floatin around in my head or my 37 desoto convert. domnt kno what ones gonna be next wellll we got a ton of pie cuts what else is new heres where we start sory the pic was from yesterday. got about half kinda mocked up top of the quarter is a piece form a 53 cad that has a veeeeeeeeeery slight body line it in i really dig how much it makes the quarters look extended and makes the slope much more noticible
With all of those cuts you could have just made the cad quarters your self out of 2" strips of metal.
Ya man, thats dead on. Your rear end looks tight! I like how you have the essentials on your tool cart. Beer bottle, coffee, WD40 and a 1/2 gallon of milk.
Yo Flop.... Just that little bit of Caddy thrown into the mix on the assend gave that car some serious flow. Not out too far, not in to tight... f-in perfection. Sweet. I wish I had vision like that.

You are building one smooth car my friend. I hope the original designer of the car is following this. Peter
flop the only thing i have done to my truck this winter was set my new chop saw box in the bed. lol Im waiting till march to make the new running boards. I have a bunch of stuff going on and I dont have the time to bust it out. looks great and i love the fact you can use the tail light as the gas door still! keep up the work and maybe some day Ill start my thread for smoothing running boards. Jarrad
peter what would i be doin then if the guy that designed it did it this smooth then everyone would have cool cars haha!! MARCH POPO gezus you must be goin through withdrawls
Is the legend of the peg leg stripper @ the drive thru true? (graduated dec 05) I just wanted to send mad props out to you flop. I shape metal with a power hammer and an ecold at work every day and the the things your doing with just a cutoff wheel and a welder blows me away. Its making me look at problems a little bit differently. I hope the move doesnt derail you. Peace
