Projects The "Red '34". 1934 Ford 5 window project.

That looks GREAT!

 

Ready for some tail lights.



These are the Rocky Tribute 41 Chevvies. I have a soft spot for them just because Rocky does.



Now, the FlamedAbone U-Weld-It battery box kit.



Mostly square box.



Holder down thing.



And, installed. Don't forget the vent.



How about some shock mounts?



L and R shocks, but still missing something...



Jenga, headlight setup. Remember to make sure you can turn the tires lock to lock without banging onto your rather expensive '34 Commercials. Guess how I learned that one..



Gotta have speed holes in your headlight brackets. Still need to tune em up and grind the welds, but this is pretty much them.



On there. And a bonus, they are the same left and right.



A few more knick-knacks and this sucker will be completely assembled.

See ya, -Abone.

 

Low headlights- tucked down next to the frame rails. Oh yeah!

 

That head on profile is tasty!

 

This is the quickest update ever.

If you are a rumble lid only purist, skip this part, cause this sucker is gonna be a trunk. Trunk support like a real human, rather than the all-thread I have been using like some kind of a cretin.



Back in the day, some dude added big honkin hinges on the outside. I have been using a few of the old holes as the handle.



Now, a handle.



And this is it for the rear end.



For some reason, mirrors are always the last thing to get stuck on my cars. These Pete and Jakes swan necks are my favorite.



And that's it. This car is now 100% mocked up and complete.



She still needs a bit of metal work and some knick knacks her and there, but other than that, this pile is ready to come apart for body and paint.

-Abone.

 

Great progress in just a few months!

 

Oh ya.Rockabillaque?

 

Probably not gonna have this little car done before then, but I'll be there for sure. I'll save you a cold beer.

-Abone.

 

PERFECT!!!!!

 

Sweet Tea.

 

Love your work. I did the same battery box idea using an old nicad battery case. I went one step farther, I made wood spacers fastened to the case and lid to make sure the battery stays put.

 

This thing looks so good.


-Woog

 

I nearly bought a nice set of 42 Chevy tails this spring purely because they make me think of @Rocky. Cars looking great.

 

The quickest update ever. Bare metal means only one thing.



It's now officially bodywork season.



See you in a few months.

-Abone.

 

You better hurry up with that body and paint as your next project is waiting patiently in the back corner LOL
How on earth do you find all these projects?

 

Jeff, you knocked it outta the park brother! that car is a beauty. HRP

 

I’m glad you’re keeping the chartreuse frame!
