  3. Put skirts on it if nothing else just to piss off the people who tell you what to do with YOUR car!

  4. A styling suggestion that'd id personally do would be to give the spot I marked a more gentle curve. I feel like it'd give it more of a swoopy look. Totally get it if you think it'd give it a goofy look though lol PXL_20240812_005636366.MP (2).jpg

    Hey man cool car. I’m from the same area. If you’re ever looking to trade some ‘37 parts let me know. I’m looking for a couple small things (right side tail light stand, skirts, ect).

    A lot of extra welding and shaping to keep the seam around the back, but it will really make the difference. I highly commend you for it. Many guys would have just thrown a pile of MIG weld in the seam and mudded over it.
     
  22. Great welding skills, do you make house calls?

    Couple more in progress. Lots of hammering coming up the warpage is seems very manageable. Getting excited to work on the drive line stuff this has been bit of a haul on the roof lol PXL_20241011_002743789.MP.jpg PXL_20241011_002732469.MP.jpg

    More welding and finishing on the passenger side. Also a picture of the front( which I had to stand on a pipe vice to take ) lol
    I have a pair of old vent / no draft windows from a 39 coming I want to incorporate, one because they work like hot dam and 2 I feel like even thought the back window is shortened I this it will help the flow will see make it look like the front and the back are different.
    Thanks for following along PXL_20241018_000654174.MP.jpg PXL_20241018_001108509.MP.jpg
