    Those new front wheels seem a little small....JMO.

    Great chop!

    Thanks everyone. I keep on getting more and more excited each day I get to work on the sedan.

    Today I got the radiator mounts made so now the radiator is sitting on the frame. The brackets go from the frame out, and have a plate that runs across both that the radiator sits on. It will be mounted with a rubber pad, and I will have the bolt and spring setup as well.

    Then I got the wheels back on the car and it sitting on the ground. Its starting to look like a car!

    Wow, she's LOW! I like the 3/4 shot from the back. Looks good, Chris.

    I got the door top all finished up. It lined up pretty well, but it will need some lead work.

    Looks great and the pictures really show your methods and progress well. Deuce tudors with a heavy chop really look mean!

    I got the drivers door skin made, and welded on. I have to make the rain gutter tracks for the inside before I can put the inside of the door back in.

    I always forget to take pictures during the process. I'll try to take more shots on the p***enger door. It's definitely going to need more work than the drivers door to get it to fit.

    You are amazing with the tin. The door and top look like they came that way from Henry. Looking good.
