*Pics* Model A build-lookout Chopperman!!

Got the panels back and in...raised the back of the car abit(spring to body clearence)...painted valve covers...re-painting sterring wheel...retightening stuff and re-aligning stuff...not too much left...gonna be throwing alot of crap in the classifieds to raise money for the rest of the upolstry and the striping...So guys buy my shit..or you can just send me some donations!! haha

 

Heres a pic of my door panel all done...dont know if I love it....I like it...just not love... Whatya think?

 

Looks good. Just think how nice it will look when you get the seat finished.
You're going to like it. As much thought as you have put into every detail of this car, I'm sure your choice will be the right one in. Everthing else turned out great, all due to your other choices.
Don't dispair, junior.

You need a couple of six-packs and a few lap-dances and you'll feel better.

 

My $.02..... Not that it means alot......

I'm with you, I like it, just not in love with it, but just wait until the rest of the interior goes in, might change your mind....

Like Mazooma said.... Everything else is top notch, so I don't doubt the interior will be anything different.

 

I like it,,,, It's not as cool as mine..But I guess it's ok.. hahahaha

No for real tho... wait till its all together,,, I think its cool tho..

 

Makoto came and went...but in the meen time he spilled some 1-shot on my grille, headlights, dash and decklid!!! Fuck it looks soooooo perfect...Been making my own wood for the top and still hunting down an interior guy....Clutch should be finally up and working in a few days...cant wait to make it move under its own power....Not too much else but some final clean-up things ( I made a list) think I still might wait for GNRS. Itll be done in Dec, but Im a hard-ass and Im gonna make y'all wait!

 

dude you gotta share some pix of makato's work...then I'll be making some wood myself!

 

Keep your pants on dude...Ill try and get some of his perfection up!

 

Either post some photos of the pinstriping or I'll release that sex tape of you and Rosie O'Donnel.

 

Well before my "special" video gets out...heres some pics.

 

looks great man!

whats your spedo out of? it looks pretty good in that dash, and the stripes accent everything just right

 

Holy Moly!!!
I just threw that video in the trash!
All looks good! But, I gotta say that dash is down right stunning!!!!!
VERY TASTEFUL!!!!
(unlike that video of yours)

You done Good, Junior!!!!

If you are still looking for a bech seat try the third seat in an Expedition, or a Suburban.

 

The spedo is out of a 1947 Chrysler convert.

Been working on this damn car forvever doing the litttle detail crap that very few will ever notice...just thaught Id share some of the big stuff...Changed the wires...fixed the door panels and installed my fan...Got the grille and headlights all squared up.....and Oh yeah I also drove the car forward about 10 feet and then back!!!!

I'm soooooo Jellious.

I looking at Body work Next week...Damm I hate sanding.

 

That's lookin' awesome!!!!

Striping is well understated and complements the car beautifully.

Great stuff....

 

Thanks I will give him a call...I think I have my guy, but it never hurts to ask arround.

 

Nice build. Gonna take me a while to study this thread.

 

Nice stripping! Congrats on how far you are along.

jon

 

Nice

 

Very nice!!!!

 

car looks great but what would i know i'm just a FNG. but really great job and attention to every detail. makes all of jealous!

 

dude, we KNOW you didnt take it for a spin and only get two photos... or maybe you were just having to much fun to be worried about the camera... I don't blame you!

 

Been keeping tabs for a while, scared that the striping would ruin it. My worries are set aside, it's the perfect touch like Devilrod said.

Beautiful work. Don't worry about the shows and spots and mags man... worry about what's important:

Hauling down the road with your arm out the window and a big ole grin on your mug.

WOOWWWWWW!!!! HOLY COW!!!! I LOVE IT!!! I don't know how I missed the updates on this car, but HOLY COW!!!

Beautiful... simply put! Your attention to detail is fantastic! I love the paint! I love the stance! That drive train looks KILLER and nice to see someone thinking aoutside the box on their intake selection! EVERYTHING looks GREAT! Can't wait to see this thing!

Only a couple quick questions... how much did you cut down that grille shell and did you have to do any weird cuts to make everything line up as it got shorter?

Looks awesome!
