I replaced using the wood everywhere, except where the door hinges mount. That area I fabricated using 1/8" sheet metal, rather than tubing. I...
Wow. Best looking "T" I've seen in a long time. Really nice job on the car.
Check with LeBaron Bonney. They sell a complete top chopped 2", so they might sell individual pieces.
They made one for my coupe, a couple of years ago, and it's perfect. I'll be getting one from them, for my '39 plymouth soon.
I'm probably wrong, but it seems to me there was a company called "Just A Hobby" which produced those frame rails, and it seeems like there was a...
There's some info on this site. I hope this helps, Doug http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/39-47Dodge/database?method=reportRows&tbl=4
Thanks. You were one of about 6. I hope it met your expectations. After the first few I had cast, the company that did the casting went out of...
I made this about 15 years ago. It's in the shape of a '39 Ford taillight. The housing and bezel are investment cast aluminum. The bezel for the...
Doug, I just saw this post. So sorry to hear about this, but glad you are okay. If there is anything I could do to help, just say so. Doug.
Put me down for $ 250
I'd like to thank all of the people, who had something nice to say about my Coupe. Doug
Hey Doug, (LOWDUG37), and everyone else, Thanks so much for the compliments. Doug
Keith, Thanks for the compliment. Your '37 Coupe blows me away, and I don't know how they could narrow it down out of all those great cars. I'm...

Politicians make the rules - they don't live by them. " Sen. John Kerry, (Mass.)who has repeatedly voted to raise taxes while in Congress,...
I'm glad it's huge, because it looks like there's a Horse show, and a Wine competition on the same grounds, the same weekend....
I made my own from scratch. I got tired of buying crap. My wife made her own also. I have no good ideas on where to go, as I never found any. The...
I'd hope the Federal Supreme Court might rule against that, being that all money states clearly that "This Note is Legal Tender For all Debts,...
Does anyone know who the "Host Club" will be at the new Goodguys event in Springfield? That could make a big impact on the sucess of the show.
Kirk, if I might add my $ .02 First of all, I'm not here to bash GG's, but maybe add some constuctive ideas. I understand that GG's is...
Big mistake. Rhinebeck was the best possible venue. Springfield sucks. Bad roads, fairgrounds are nothing but a big parking lot, and where is...
edcodesign, Thankyou for the compliment on my '32 coupe. I hope you don't mind I saved your pictures of my car, to my computer. Doug
Thank you for posting such a great video. You are truly very talented.
I found in some areas, it might be easier to fabricate supports from flat stock, basically making your own shaped tubing. In doing this you end up...
I love Goodguys events. That having been said. I've been to Pocono, and Rhinebeck, and there is no comparison. At Pocono, aside from being able to...
They're the original '32 fenders.
Here's a few shots of my rear fenders in primer, and one after finish paint. I formed a bead around the edge where I cut them, so they would look...
I always understood it to be that 1.5 X dia. was what you wanted for thread depth. Minimum.
GM sells the retro fit kit. Who owns GM?! Interesting!
Thanks for all the info guys. I'll take all the advice and try it in the morning. If it comes out good, I'll post some pictures, if not, I'll just...
