Here is a quick update on some of my progress Got the window surrounds done on the Drivers side. Hope to have the passenger side done tomorrow.

Still got lots to do, but Im chugging away to be ready for Mooneyes.

Ill take better pictures tomorrow.

 

Dredman, that was cool. Could I get a copy of that?

You rock!

 

Man. That looks like it was a lot of fun.

Wow, what a cool event!!! Wish I could have been there!!!

How about putting all the pictures together as a timeline and post it in the tech-section as a "Hot to chop a Shoebox"? That would be soooo nice, kinda tough to have a "quick overview" on the 23 pages here!! ;-)

Congrats on the chop, it looks damn cool!

The invitation is still there if anyone wants to come up this weekend and bend some metal.

I do need another Welder if someone wants to bring one.

Well, away I go. STill cutting and pasting.... ACK!

 

nice to here from you Rob.I gotta say I've been enjoying the progress reports guys. "NOTHIN' TO IT,BUT TO DO IT".

 

Alright, more updates on the HAMB Chop Shoebox.

Got the passenger side done and a vent wing chopped down.

whew...this is alot of work.

 

Nice work!

 

its looking really good Norm.

 

awesome..I want a copy too.

 

Nice work Norm..

 

i was planning on coming up to help you out this morning but i woke up late and i have to go to todds house for my neices birthday party. see you tuesday.

 

Okay, more updates, but no pictures.

I got about 1/2 of the rear of the roof welded in.

Im Mig welding the lower section since its pretty straight. As for above the window, im TIG'ing it in so I can "Hammer Weld" it, to move the metal around to keep from getting low and high spots.

I would say by next weekend, I should be doing body/prep work on the roof area.

Ill post picts tomorrow.

 

I applied tonight online for this plate.

Great idea whom ever posted it earlier.

 

Norm-Your moving right along. It looks really good.

Got room for 1 or 2 more?

 

sure...but you will have to beat Cornernfool first.

 

Please add me to the list.
