Technical 1936 Ford front panel

Recreating a 1936 Ford Coupe panel that sits in between the front fender and the grille.A hammer-form jig was made to aid making the panel.

 

OK, now make me some front fenders, or maybe a Roadster dash.............................

 

sure....after you show me the money!

 

I have a question.. Wouldnt it be more cost effective to find a used panel? Also what would you charge to build a roadster dash???

 

Under normal cir***stances,yes.But in this instance i'm building an alunimum 36 5 window.This particular panel is steel,made for a recent car show to display.Next one will be aluminum.

36 roadster? it would be cost effective for you to find a used panel.

 

Nice work Jon! What is the hammer form made out of?

Nice work,
Have you done coupe rear fenders yet?

 

just this hammer form so far,its going to be a 10 year project

 

whoa man. that looks incredible! i don't think ford could have made these cars any more difficult, lots of twists, turns and reverses. they keep telling me it's worth it. stellar job.

 

Great work ! I think a roadster dash would be easier.

 

it would be for sure,but as im making every panel in aluminum ,and therefore making a jig for every panel i guess it doesn't matter whats easier or harder.

who made the steel dash in your pic?looks good.

thanks for checking!

 

I made the dash , Thanks
