    Here's a teaser pic of my 39 ford convertible, being built by jeb's metal and speed in long beach calif. The car is being done as a mid 50,s semi-custom. The metal work is outstanding, it's almost a crime to cover it up. There are many little trick,s and details that jeb is doing to the car. He is truly a master of his craft.
    I will post more photo's and details soon

    Thats hot. Jeb Scolman is a badass!

    For anyone who hasn't seen the metalwork on the 36 he did for Acme Speed Shop, do yourself a favor and do a search!!

    What's been done to the car so far besides smoothing the door handles?

    What a refreshing thread. I am almost done in by all of the rat rod posting for the last year. This build will be at the top of my list of "things to keep in touch with". Keep posting any progress.
