Thanks Joey. Is it kind of rare to see a photo of a traditional car in this time period that is really cool? This is the first one in a long time...
Ah! I just checked out their site - thanks!
Jordan - always appreciate seeing your work - unique and well executed. Question - on the signals are you casting your own lenses too?
Beautiful photos...but you're just slipping that last roadster in? If I could drive any car on the planet for 5 minutes it would be that one.
@Ryan - how far can you possibly be taking this? I wish I had all of this in the biggest fattest most ridiculously huge and unmanageable coffee...
Congratulations - such a great project. Appreciate you taking us along for the ride.
Oooof! I love that '28!
One of my absolute favorite cars on this site.
My name is Raaf. Some part of me is Swedish and my grandma wanted me to have a Swedish name so she named me Raaf. But Raaf is not a Swedish...
Ryan - these Tom Cobbs posts are absolutely amazing. Perfect union of amazing cars and terrific photography. Thank you.
Are you really questioning your decision making and resolve at this point?!? If it's the only thing standing between you and driving - it's an...
That's an interesting combination that, to my eye, looks better than I would expect it to. Thanks for sharing.
Based on what I see online - the address above is current and accurate. They do really cool stuff.
Great car - great photo. I'm biased because the only thing I love almost much as '29 roadsters, is old glass. But in this case, that glass is...
For better or worse, my real name is Raaf. My grandmother named me - she wanted me to have a nice Swedish name. She drank a lot. It's not a...
Ok so let's really test this off topic thing... Ever watch a movie and feel like you're the only one on the planet that is seeing a particular...
Great article Joey - always thankful for your updates. I have never seen the car in person, but based on your limited description alone, I...
Love the photos - thanks for sharing.
@Dreddybear - Same for me! I remember slammed bugs with crazy camber, even chopped bugs and "cal" rubber white window seals. They were everywhere....
@poorboy - Interesting - thanks!
It kind of looks like a Whippet grille that has been narrowed at the bottom. ...but it also looks too large overall to be a Whippet. I can't...
Wow @Outback - that's really beautiful. I don't usually like faux finishes - but the casting effect/scaling looks perfect.
Right on. I will try to be there.
Dude. Based on those staples, I think you got real lucky. Get well.
Make sure you fully submerge whatever you're soaking. If you do not, and depending on how strong the citric acid solution is...you are at risk of...
I've had good success striking with shaped rubber mallets of different sizes, ample patience, and a shot bag underneath. I switch to a soft wood...
Thank you. The front fender exit louvers are interesting on the red '29 RPU. I haven't seen this done before but they might actually help. Great...
Good luck to each of you.
@Jalopy Joker - always appreciate you sharing photos. These are great.
I'm not a good judge because I love panel striping almost by default, but now that I think about I don't think I've seen much of it on curvy cars....
