'38(?) Zephyr under construction

Saw this at my local Meineke shop today. The shop owner is a cool guy, a traditional rod builder. He's building this one for his father-in-law, so it's not for sale. Morrison ch***is, Ford Racing engine, all the good stuff. Thought I'd share some pix. (Sorry for the ****py pix, the shop was kinda dark). Enjoy.

God I love those,very nice lookin build!!Thanks for the pics.

 

Can't wiat to see it done!Looks killer now!

 

That's a 38', but damn it's awesome!!

 

Great lines and cool color. Thanks for posting. How long has is been "under construction"?

 

That's going to be a great reacher, as Grey Baskerville used to say. I like the idea of bolting that beautiful sheet metal onto a Morrison ch***is. Like to see the finished project.

 

wow nice cant wait to see it on the ground with the wheels

 

....especially impressive considering that the original car was a unibody.

 

Looking at that makes me want to push my car off a cliff and say f*** it. That is what I call high end. Kind of make me see I will never own nothing but junk.

 

I just noticed he put the LED tail lights on there... very disappointing, but still a great car. Tell him I have the real deal if he is interested.

 

I think I could learn to live with them, if they were attached to that car!

 

Simply killer.....

 

That's what you do for a street rod.

Nice car but Ford crate motor and Morrison ch***is head it right down that path.

 

But But But ... he said "The shop owner is a cool guy, a traditional rod builder" ...

 

I'm sure he is, lots of guys build other stuff as well.

 

That car is beautiful and I am very partial to the color and cannot wait to see it completed.

 

He's been at it for under 6 months, on and off between customer brake/exhaust jobs, etc. A local body shop handled the tin work and paint, while he focussed on the ch***is. I'll try to get more pix as he progresses.

 

Wow! modern quality brakes,suspensions system and gas tank!Should run as good as it looks!

 

I agree, not a fan of the headlights either. Round Lucas headlights in side the stock teardrop shape?!? Really ugly.

 

Nice looking car! Ilove Zephyr's.

 

i like it beautiful color , and the gage set is to cool , good job

 

This is a nice looking car, a bit street ish but still very nice, thanks for the pics.

 

I love Zephyrs. 38's are beautiful...I've got one myself.

Thanks for posting the photos!
