Hot Rods OH HELL YEAH!! the roadster body is on its new frame

I had a few pals from work stop by after we got out this morning to help me lift my roadster body onto the new ch***is I built for it. I've been waiting for two and a half years for this moment and to say I'm stoked is an understatement. Nothing is bolted down or shimmed, just set in place but its pretty close and you get a good idea of the at***ude of the car. I still have to narrow the gap between the headlights, reposition the aprons, and rework the windshield but I think I should be okay as far as meeting my Autorama deadline. Anyways I have to get some sleep I'm working overtime tonight but I don't know if I'll be able to knowing this ****er is sitting in my garage.

 

got that timeless look.........congrats

 

Thanks! That's what I'm shooting for.

 

Too cool ! Keep it up .

 

Looking good, looks like it just drove in from the 40's.

 

Nailed it!!!

 

Love the aprons w/out fenders!!!

 

LUCKY...YES brother it look's great indeed! so when you finish up on the roadster, you should let me take that pesky old sedan off your hands! HA! O.K. no need to curse and call me what i am. O i heard you! it's just that i love that old lowboy, and would give it a good home. **** who i'am i kidding, i can't even afford to feed it! HA!...POP.

Thanks Chris, not sure yet. I may just leave it a lone, I have apretty cool old accessory Model A gauge cluster that I could hog out to fit 1940's style gauges. I also have a really nice 36 dash but that's what I have in my sedan. So, who knows?
