1936 Roadster hand formed & other projects

Problem is even the customer sometimes don't see this and think you're trying to screw him up...
Love this thread.

 

This exactly why I always have the customer help me with one patch early on into the job. After helping for an hour or so they fully understand from that point on. Works every time.

 

Miss T has been working on the coronet left floor.




Max was working on finishing the right door.


He also was working on the right fender filling the old trim holes plus the was a good sized dent foot ball size about 1 inch deep below the 3rd & 4 hole back from the front

Holes ground down.

Some hammer dolly & shrink disk work.

Nice straight & clean & every thing fitting well.


Some repair on the left door.



That all for tonight more tomorrow.

 

As always, nice work.....Jim

 

Max worked on the left door.






We rolled it out side to do a little shop clean up & re org panels are fitting well. We also brought in another project.


Miss T started installing the new left floor pan.


More on the way.

 

Well, don't keep us guessing, what the new project??????.....Jim

 

The 36 Chev we had is back for some up grading of a few things First we are replacing the mustang II car suspension with a Heidts power rack suspension & second we will be rebuilding the left front fender to match the right plus a few other small things. Which I will mention later as the build progresses. So here is what we are starting with.


The old cobbed in out of a car front suspension.


More later on this project, the last of the Coronet build & a few other things to come.

 

Oh, my heart be still- I love those cars, and it's even my favorite color!

 

Nice car, I can see why you want to remove that front end! What year mustang is that from, nothing like the 74-78 version?.....Jim

 

Jim I do not know what year it is out of all I know is it steers like crap & the women that owns the car has a hard time driving it. Originally she wanted just to add a power rack till I explained how bad it cobbed in & just adding a power unit would not fix all the problems, her & husband had a discussion & decided just fix it wright as they plan on driving it for several years. They have a couple of other rigs but this is the one getting the attention now with the other later.

 

All right another project to follow! Keep up the good work!

 

Max was installing the door skin on the left door.



Miss T was welding in the left floor pan. This project is getting close to being done just a few more things. Then on to other projects.

 

Max was working on the trunk lid of the Coronet.



















More to come.

 

Nice work....Jim

Back awhile ago I fixed a 56 Chrysler convert door the mud was up to 3/4 of an inch thick in places & 3 paint jobs.

 

More on the Chrysler door.












Tt was all hammer, dolly, slap & shrink disc. The bondo worm holes were drilled out & plugs were tig welded in. All it needs is a couple of heavy coats of epoxy primer & a good block out no mud now.
