Customs 35 Ford 3-window build

I haven't checked your thread in awhile, it is looking great! A great job on the dash, rounding the glove box to match made it top notch.

 

Well, I hope Bill was impressed, because I certainly am!

Mart.

 

No not yet. Hopefully this week he will

 

Of course I took it back!!! I wouldn't want to hinder the progress.

 

Gene started to pick and file the upper part of the quarter. Its looking better now. I fixed the sheet metal around the striker where it was wore down. I fixed the rust in the the door jamb. I also took the female dovetail out and fixed it and put it back in.

 

Geez Kid your movin right along . Nice work . Soon you will be rollin rubber and that will make all your effort pay off . Later...

 

Again nice work....Jim

 

Today I fixed all of the bullet holes in the inner door panel and a crack. I also replaced the lower corner of the inner panel. I cleaned the inside of the door skin. I pick and filed the upper part of the door. Gene helped me out with shrinking the lower part of the door with the shrink disc. I replaced the lower foot of the inner structure but the picture turned out bad of the finished product. I now have the patch panel ready to go on.

 

I welded the door patch on today. It is roughed out now but still needs some straightening.

 

Utterly amazing!!! Looking like a whole new car!!!

 

Damn, that's some nice work.....Jim

 

Wow, that car just keeps getting better all the time.

 

I built the bottom of the inner door last night and tonight I pick and filed for a couple of hours. I welded the handle plate back in and painted the inside of the skin and inner panel. I got the inner screwed back in. Tomorrow I will weld the inner back in and gap the door and it will be done.

 

It has to feel good getting this close to finishing the one side of the body. Looks great.

 

I got the inner welded back in and the door gapped from the beltline down.

 

For comparison's sake

 

Looks great …. nice work ….. I guess I should have turned my monitor …. now my neck hurts

 

I fixed the pictures now. I didnt notice till i posted. Sorry about your neck

 

Looking super - great work. I have a '35 3W pretty much disassembled and ready to start fixing and re-assembly - all the pic's you've posted will be invaluable so please keep them coming!!!

 

i love it man. good work

 

Damn you did a great job....

 

This is one of the finest builds, work and documentation that I have seen. Outstanding work. I had a 35 5 window once upon a time , wish I had it back.............Keep up the great work and posts.

 

I have posted on this thread before but I have to say it again OUTSTANDING work !! I love the comparison pics of before and after!!

 

That door looks great. It really does look like a whole new car.

 

Computors been in shop all week, just caught your updates for the week, as usual looking just great....Jim

 

I straightened the quarter panel tonight. It came out good but its not perfect. Sorry about the crappy pics lately the screen went out on my camera so i have to use my ipod for 2 to 3 weeks. Once i get my camera back i will get some better pics for you guys.

 

What the hell, that new camera shit the bed already??

Tell Gene he's dreamy.

 

Awesome hot rod

 

Just the screen went out. It still took pics but it was really hard to tell what i was taking a pic of. Best Buy sent it in to get fixed under waranty.

You know Gene is gay for zip ties not you

 

I straightened the beltline area tonight. I am done with the body on this side other than straightening the roof. I am going to start on the drivers side tomorrow night
