Technical 11 Day Brookville Roadster Build . 1930/31

How was the fit between the reveal on the rear "cowl" and the reveal on the quarter where they butt up to each other, as well as where the reveal at the top of the front cowl side meets the side of the fuel tank? Adjustment needed?

 

The reveals all need messed with

Monday

Squared and level decklid hole













Cut all filed out

 

Back floor pan and the panel that attaches to it in .

 

Lookin good flop. How about you polish one completely out and chrome it..... Spaceship

 

It will shine like the 3w I'm doing .

 

Always good to see your projects. Bob

 

Still watching...

 

Im surprised that Larry haven't given a comment on that 3w. Because that is be-a-u-ti-ful !

 

Details and cleanup of the metal today

 

What did you use for the cleanup of the metal?

 

At the risk of getting flamed for a really stupid question (one of my personal specialties)....... why did you start with panels and the subframe rather than just get a complete body?
Is it to perfect the fit and finish compared to what Brookville consider 'good-enough'? Are they that much worse than Henry's original?
Anyway, subscribed and looking forward to regular updates over the rest of the build.

 

Tightening things up !

 

^^^If a picture paints a thousand words, you just said a mouthful^^^

They are old railroad screw jacks . Says rated for 12 tons on them . Hoping to find 2 more local . Heavy bastards if you have to ship them .

 

I really enjoy your posts - and learn a lot - thank you.

 

Great job as usual Flop - love the way you show the progress and the obviously wonderful fricking results. Can't wait to get you working on some of my old tin once again!

Always fun Dale ! Thanks !

I get cars unassembled because then I have complete control .

 

Uh oh

 

We really like your COMPLETE CONTROL by the way.......

 

Is that upper door to quarter gap correction done in lead or steel?

 

I would need a huge pile of that dust for my COE. Maybe a little in the gas tank to. O wait, I don't have a tank yet. I wish my sheet metal was in that condition to. Nice projest.
GO MAN GO....

 

Just frickin awesome! I love guys like you that show us "good enough" doesn't have to be just good enough.
