Projects 40 chevy business coupe project

testing..testing

chop vid link doesnt seem to work, this is what comes up....

 

oh, accidentally changed it private on yt. Try again

 

Nice chop video, looking good....

 

Wow---just watched a video of a guy in a foreign country chop the top of a 40 chev cpe in a rodless environment. Hotrodding is the best ambassador we have---bar none.

 

vid works now...

first primer layer after two weeks of work

 

I like the way you stepped up and tackled the negative aspects of this gorgeous car. The 40 Chevy's are one of my fave body styles ever. Congrats on your skills and attitude, you are a real hotrodder with a super cool ride. Enjoy my brother! ~sololobo~

 

thanks sololobo

 

You're doing some knockout work on that Chevy. Keep up the great work and nice chop video!

 

good work brother....

 

First layer of primer

 

Great job so fare !!!

 

hi guys.. I found now just my last hobby or project car picture. it is took from a american beauty car show at haapsalu in estonia. yr. was 2009 I think. And that was again only 73 linc coup in here but sold it to buy a peace of rusty 40 chevy.. hehh.

 

ok, enough crap.. mabye too many beer or smhtn.. but there is hilborn killer look 40 copped chevy 05.11.13

 

ok..I have had no time to write or put pictures here..because I have done so much work every day with this car to get ready to first cruise and meeting.

electric work, front fenders and many many little things have to paint and install. glass and weatherstripping, runningboards.. dash. and so..but it still needs a lot.

Today - I've made first test drives and so. feeling was hmm ( do you remember your first hot rod ride?) theres no words. that noise and everything.

But Electric cooling fan is too close to water pump pulley that they touch sometimes. so i bend the brackets little but there is still about 2mm space between.. Will see what happens. after last mile it was ok.

 

..last weekend

450miles - had some problems but it drives well

Old Iron Weekender 2013 - best car

 

That came out beautiful!! Any more pics?

 

Wow, very well done; and the proportions on that very difficult chop are perfect!
