Projects 1932 Chevrolet coupe build

Thanks guys I need to get back on it but have been up here at school trying to finish up the semester. One more week and I'm home for a month though! Anybody got any coil overs for sale???

 

Well I finally got home for winter break so I'm here for almost a month. Hopefully I can get quite a bit accomplished. Heres some stuff from this weekend.

Patch for the roof




Coil over mounts

 

Got a little more done on the body, going to sandblast it soon. Here it is...

 

looks good

 

Damn . That looks like fun. That car is gonna be, and is so kool...John

 

Heres some more updates. Got those rockers pretty close to done. Sandblasted the body today, which was not very fun. Here ya go...



Story of my life...


Off to get blasted


This stuff ****s

 

Dang . I was gonna try to pressure clean a complete 9 inch, but my hose was full of ice. It looks good ben.

 

When your done, you can say for sure.... I did it ALL!

Good job Ben.

Thanks and yea i've never done anything like that. The sandblaster was powered by a 302 ford motor, it got the job done ha.

Ha yea I will have learned a lot thanks man

 

Whew! I've been going nuts waiting for some updates on that Chevy! Gonna make it to Knoxville in May with it? School I'm sure is eatin' up your building time but you are making great progress!

 

Whew maybe Knoxville 2012 or somethin like that haha. And yeah being in Cookeville for school definitely limits my time to work, but I graduate in May! You gonna be in Knoxville this year?

 

More progress...did a little more welding and got that body primed inside and out with white epoxy. Hope ya like it...

first mud

 

That thing looks like it's going to be pretty nice! Love that you are doing everything yourself!!! Keep us posted!!

 

Looks great Ben! You are my hero!

 

im very impressed! i wanna know how you guys learn all this stuff cause it cant be pure dumb luck to just make it look this easy!

 

you guys are kicking *** ,,,

 

OK - why are you mudding a cleco'd panel??

 

Looks killer. Your Dad looks to be a great teacher. When you get older and have kids make sure you p*** the knowledge to your kids as your Dad p***ed it to you.

 

great build so far, cant wait to see it finished

 

I love this build wonder why?

 

Thanks for all the encouragement guys i'm tryin to get as much done as i can before i have to go back to school

You're gonna be able to see it and dont want the seam to show where its welded

Thanks and yea he is and i sure will!

 

Early congrats on the May graduation! I'm an MTSU grad myself but maybe we can still get along enough to talk cars! Yep, Knoxville (May), Muscle Shoals (June), Good Guys (June), Lousville (August), and Shades (Sept.) are always my usual attends each year.

 

Great watching this build. Looking for ideas for my '32 5 window body. What are you going to use to fill the wheelwells?

Ha yeah i'm sure we can get along. And Me and dad usually make it to all those so I'm sure i'll be seein ya. Can't wait for warm weather!

Thanks a lot and just gonna take some 14 or 16 gauge sheet metal and make some

 

Got the body mounts made and dad got some work done to the dash today! I can finally see how its gonna look now and am pleased with everything so far. Let me know what ya think

 

Nice, keep it coming.

 

looks good, i like the front shot, it has a *****in stance

 

Thanks guys and I am pretty happy about the way it sits too! Got the last two body mounts done and dads got the dash shaped up.

 

I love this build man . the six speed is gonna rock.

 

Been busy with different stuff here lately but got a little done on the floor. Here it is
