my 34 3 window coupe build

today, I got my thermotat housing welded up so that it points up and not on an angle. the radiator hose we be the same size and is at a better angle to the radiator outlet... also made a new breather stand as I'm not going to use the mech. fuel pump.

 

My gosh you move quickly. Looking great!

 

That's a beautiful touch...

 

Nice car!!! keep us posted...Good Work so far

 

Great work Jim.

 

so today I wanted to get the gen. mounted and was going to put it up over the pass. side valve cover
this ment that I would have to mill the front edge of the water pump thermostat housing so belt would clear
but as I was mocking it up I hated it! it Just stuck out like a sore thumb so here's how I mounted it....

 

Better place for it. Why cover up that beautiful Caddy valve cover with a black generator.

 

awesome

 

so today my new windshield frame came in and had to be chopped 3"
I got that done.. (the old one I bought just did not fit right)
also started making my fuel log for carb's need a few more fittings and it will be done...

 

I would like to know what the coating is too

 

Awesome coupe man, I bet the guy with the Boyd C. comment feels like a fucking retard about now. I don't think there is a thing wrong with a glass car as long as its done tastefully, which yours is. Keep up the awesome work and x 3 on the coating on your 94's. Early Caddy motors give me chills.

I will see bill today he is bringing the fittings I need so I will ask him what the coating is....he does tons of them.

 

What's your plans for tomorrow? Call me.

 

ooh no, you must have a fat wallet!
going to try and be there at 5:30
could you bring the 40' wheel?

 

I'll see you there. I'll bring the wheel. I sold ONE welder for $30! That's it! Two hours of picking my nose and butchering the spanish language,hahaha!

 

This build/transformation makes you wonder, how the hell were "steet rods" ever popular?? Awesome HOT ROD!!! Great job!

 

This thing is sweet, I'll be following this one. That Caddy motor is a 10 out of 10.

 

bill said the coating is Yellow zink cromate

 

wanted to say thanks to bad bob for giving me this the steering wheel..... looks so cool in the car!

 

Looks great,Jim! How do you know it will be a good fit,without a seat yet? Or did you sit on something to get a feel? I like the way it looks....

 

look at steering wheel pic # 1 see the box?

 

hahaha!!!!!

 

What is the Genny out of? I have been thinking of using a Ford from an 8BA.

 

Awesome build a great save. i predict more will follow after seeing this thread. Keep the updates coming.

 

I Love this car! Its looking so bad ass!
