Customs 35 Ford 3-window build

Here is an update on progress. I blasted the ash tray. I brazed some cracks on the waterfall. I cleaned the inside of the passenger quarter. I welded up the holes in the passenger quarter panel.

 

I welded up the cracks in the dash and I welded the plate for the steering column drop back in

 

Nice work as usual. Great practice for when you work on my car!!!!

 

Did you get your thumb pinched in the English Wheel?

 

No busting spot welds on floor of mustang, slipped and smashed it on torque box. See how much you pay attention, it was like that at the Roadster Run already

 

I thought he maybe he tried to stick his thumb in the bench grinder again!!!!!

 

Very nice on the updates, sorry about the thumb.

 

Jamie gave me the idea to make the glove box the same shape as the instrument cluster so the cutting began. I just finished it up today I think it looks great.

 

And here it is in the car. Looks even better in the car I think. let me know what you guys think

 

Great idea, nicely executed.

 

WOW that dash looks killer Good job!!

 

Looks absolutely awesome!!!!! Even your mother gave her approval!!!

 

Well done; a "modern" update that fits the 40's custom theme. Keep it comin'.....

 

Here are the problem areas on the passenger side. I cut the sheet metal off of the cowl and quarter. I then started patching the subrail behind the door. I got the rocker tacked in. Now I have to fix the bottom of the A and B pillars

 

looks like you have time to work on your car, Looking awesome

 

You did such good job on the dash most people won't know that it's been changed!!

 

That is one nice looking dash.

 

Your dash looks great!!

 

I fixed the bottom of the passenger side B pillar tonight. It was almost completely rusted off. Took some time but I got it.

 

Thanks for all of the complements on the dash.

 

All that new metal in there looks so gooooood.....Jim

 

I´m really impressed with your skills and good taste, a ´35 3W taildragger is my dream car.

Gene gives me Fridays off to work on my car or go back to ND. I also make time by staying nights and working on it.

 

between last night and tonight I got the A pillar repaired. I got the top and bottom hinges bolted to the body. I know the one hinge is backwards in the pic, dont worry I fixed it. I put the door on just to see how bad things are. Right now the bottom hinge isnt attached to the door.

 

Looks really great, the door even looks like it fits pretty good.

 

The car is really coming along nicely. How much more "repair" work do you have to do on the body??

 

Looks great....Jim

 

I have to repair the A and B pillars on the drivers side. Cowl and quarter patches on both sides. major door repairs. Some work on the firewall. Other than that thats about it

 

I know you'll do a great job on those repairs.

 

You really are doing a great job!
I can't wait to find a 35 3 window.
I will own one some day.

Keep up the good work and thanks for posting the updates.
