Hot Rods 1931 dodge

Ready for paint.Can't wait until it's blue hope to have it sprayed this weekend.

 

Finally painted. I need to rub it out and hopefully get it running by July.

 

Really cool! Cheater slick like I had on my 1961 Ventura in Milwaukee back in the day.
Looks good blue. Thanks for the old pix.

 

Nice looking, enjoy it!!

 

Love the color, it's going to be a great car.

 

Neat ! ,thanks for sharing .

 

Thanks guys can't wait to drive in it again. The last time was 1970 I was 6 years old.

 

ribs are nice,different

 

Got any cast off original parts from the car?

 

I have a few front break drums wheel cyclinders new break springs new a front axel that's about it

 

Looks great!
I have a garage floor that changes colors too.
I really like the story about this car.

 

Hopefully my floor will brighten up when I touch up my daughters car it's yellow.

 

That car is Freakin Rad!!!!

 

What a great story and car. I sure hope you post a picture of your Dad's first ride, in the rebuilt rod.

 

Nice job!

 

Your car is awesome, Dodge's are just down right *****in.

 

That's a great idea !

 

anything new with the Dodge??

 

yeah did you get her on the road yet?

 

I am building a 1929 in tribute for my Dad as he p***ed away 6 years ago . The fact you get to rebuild your Dad's car together is a memory you will always hold close to your heart . Enjoy every minute you spend together I know I did . Rob

 

Summers over back to working on the car. I finished the steering wheel and painted it gold to match the vinyl that I picked out for the interior. Been working on the fuel lines and linkage. I got the headers back and they are ready to install. Hopefully ready to start in a month. Trying to get motivated to finish it for next year.

 

Fantastic!!! Its a real pleasure seeing your car progress. TY

 

I thought I would post a few pics of the dash and headers and fire wall. I had the upolstery guy over to measure and show samples. Picked out the gold and white as close to what my dad could remember using 50 years ago. Kind of early for upolstery but I need vinyl for the exterior around the cowl and grill white vinyl can't finish the fire wall without this. I have to finish the fire wall clutch brake pedal plumbing and fuel line before I can finish inside.

 

The Holidays are over. Time to get back in the garage. I went to the upholsterer to get the vinyl for the cowl. I wrapped the edge of the cowl with a white vinyl and mounted the wood firewall got the brake and clutch lines run. I hope to be wiring by the end of the week.

 

Looks good..Remember spring is just around the corner.

 

Will you have it ready for Back to the 50's?

 

I will have it there if nothing to serious goes wrong.

 

The interior guy stopped by with the door panels. Bright feels like i'm sitting in a christmas tree bulb. Well thats the way it was in 1960

 

It's looking good!

 

very nice hope to see it done at symco
