New changes to the 1928 coupe

Making some changes to the beater coupe.....

 

I also need to put the rolled & pleated top insert and running board covers on and do something to the inside..

 

Looks great. What are the hubcaps? They look almost like Corvette or early Impala.

 

Hub caps are 1960 Buick....

 

Lookin good Carl!

 

So, should I cover the rust or leave the "patina" ???

 

Prime it, paint and be happy!

 

Paint it, rust needs to be eradicated.

 

I would throw money in the direction paint before I spent a dime on the other stuff. It does look good just rusty.

 

Looks good man ,but yeah it needs paint..

 

Paint is good.

 

Yes, paint it! The car is looking great, wish it was mine

 

The stance is killer, nice 60's look. I love those baby lake pipe's.

 

paint it

 

With a paint brush

 

Looking good, go for the paint now.

 

Love the stance and the steelies.

 

The radiator treatment is COOOOL! Likewise, the nerfs. Just ***s!
Paint on this one would really seal the deal...

Hey, weren't those rear fenders bobbed in the first pic? Maybe trim-and-bead these rears, about 4"...

Those nerf bars...Can't get over 'em!

 

Looks good I like it. Either way i am sure it will be fine

 

Love the car!! Love the changes!!!!!

I see it in a light lavender pearl purple paint with white interior with dark purple inserts on the seat. Maybe black Trinidad carpet with gold flecks and laminate knobs.

Keep going man!

 

it would be gold metallic if it were at the '******s place, plain black interior.

The car is perfect just looking a little worn and forlorn.

I am sure it will get there, no one pays that much attention to one then just stops.

 

I like it. I am just getting ready to chop my 29, how many inches did you take out? What did you use for drip rails? Do you have a close up of the top of the roof and visor area?
Thanks

 

Thanks Duke, chopped 5 1/2" and the drip rails are stock.. Just used flat stock(will be painted) to cover the wood header and the top insert will ****-up against it.....

 

Thanks for the info. I really like the look of that coupe.

 

The coupe looks good. What about black for color?

 

Paint it the same collor as the one in the background . They both look good
