Projects a long time coming

Great to see this thread up & racing, excited for you, such a cool thing! Will follow along with interest

 

Yes indeed.

 

What's this^^ Little info??

 

Here ya go- I fixed it for ya-

 

Jimmy’s 34 four door. Caddy powered tuck and roll inner fender wells, roof, firewall wings etc etc it’s pretty neat

 

Can kinda see it more here lots of panel stripes as well. I’ll message you any further pic if I find some on my phone so we don’t de rail the thread

 

Those look like they are shaping up great Austin!

 

Sweeeet. Thx

 

the cad is actually out of the hirohata merc clone if i remember right, has e and j head lights

 

Cant wait to get them it should really start to fill the back of the car out and knock the last bit of "dirt track car" out of it.

 

Yeah jack walkers car?

 

ALSO think I found a chop I want to go with think it has really good flow

 

I want to say @JCARRILLO chopped that one. Looks phenomenal!

 

Im continually blown away by the group of guys here on the HAMB. @Mo rust donated the pedal parts to me to help get to the Roc! and @41 GMC K-18 sent me some awesome Flathead art of one of my engines!! and a few T shirts to top it off! Thank you guys sincerely. LONG LIVE THE HAMB!

 

That’s rad!

 

Very cool! you are living the dream. Looking forward to more updates.

 

Are you just living in Jimmy's shop or are you making the 10 hour drive daily?! Either way keep GOING!!

 

It’s not ten hours lol. He’s just gone down two weekends and worked a million hours. I don’t think I’d believe the amount of work done in the amount of time if I hadn’t seen it first hand

 

Haha jus makin the drive it’s so much easier having his early ford parts stash! Need an odd bolt or nut jus go out back need a bearing jus go out back lol

 

I’ll keep it updated may try to get some more work done this weekend, have a new project swinging by today that’s gonna take up some of my day I’ll sneak a pic in on the thread it’s H.A.M.B. friendly

 

OK. 9.5 hours....

 

Killer project and nice save!
You got the most important part of the body; the roof! Most everything else is available new or used. Fortunately the stock car builder didn't hog out all the window openings.
You should post before/after photos in the 33 - 34 Ford Coupe body thread, which features some inspiring saves!

@Hot Rods Ta Hell yeah close as they got was the gutted passenger door had been cut and the bottom of the window opening rolled/ pushed down. He pushed it back up when he got home but it’s the door they are replacing the bottom half with a different door so quick fix thankfully

 

WILL DO ! I always kinda figured the one I could swing would be....rough to say the least haha but we are chippin away at her an getting it straight again.

 

WELL here's some sneak photos of my truck till I make more progress next weekend

 

Prior to pouring concrete at Grandma's house in 1957, my first roadster was built on dirt & gravel.

My older bud called it "Roadster on the Rocks"...

 

got a in progress pic of my rear tips being made hes testing a new way making them. looking great

 

Great progress!
