Customs Cody Walls builds the E Job !!!

To get them perfect they all get a skim coat of filler and 90% of it ends of in the trash can , this is one stage some people don’t show . I’ll be back on the buick for this next year

 

I interviewed for a place a few years back who did restoration and custom work, including paint and body. The owner said “we don’t use any filler, period.” They had little to no sheetmetal equipment, no TIG welder in sight, and the shop was very poorly lit. Maybe he meant they just put on 20 coats of high build? I didn’t see any of their paint jobs outside but I can’t imagine they were anything close to show quality. I was glad to pass on that job.

 

❤️

 

Looks good.

 

Great work, I can´t wait to see this one finished...

 

Nice!

 

Correct me if I’m wrong @Cody Walls , but didn’t you have that car just about ready for paint not too long ago?

 

Just an update . Even though I can’t show photos of the latest progress on the car . I just wanted to let everyone know I’ve been thrashing on the EJob . I came out of paint retirement and Richard a Brandon Glymph have been helping me spray the Buick . It is painted an it looks like a sheet of glass . I should start final assembly next week . An I’m planning on debuting it at the grand National roadster show in February .

 

Great! If I understand things you can't show finished photos before the National Roadster Show, correct? Best of luck to you! Bob

 

Awesome news Cody! What color did you pick (or should I say, did your wife pick...)?

 

Thanks for keeping us in the loop. Looking forward to see photo's once it's out & about!

 

The perfect engine and fearless, unapologetic use of bondo. Hero.

 

Hey Cody outstanding work as always and Im betting everyone else not just me is hanging to see it when its finished and debuted.

Whats the black 3W coupe in the back of this pic? Any more pics/details on that? Thanks.

 

^^^^^
Packard??

 

. Correct, if your going for the AMBR or the Slonaker

everything else at the grand National it doesn’t matter if it’s shown before

 

She picked black . But I asked her who’s going to clean it . A the finger got pointed at me . So we spent a long time looking at colors an we came up with a house of kolor Gold we both liked .

 

It’s a 37 packard I’ve been working on for a customer I’ll do a build thread on it when I get some time . This past year I did put a 56 packard dual quad 374 ci v8 in it . That thing is a monster But also I update my instagram a lot more frequently because it’s easier. An I have photos on there if you want to see it sooner
