yblock292 Builds a '51 Ford Kustom!

Yeah I am sitting here with 2 white cars and 2 green ones not coming up with any good ideas.

Skoh has a great idea though, old guitar colors is a great place to look for ideas.

 

That is a great color, vintage guitars is a good idea!Thanks

 

How about Green




OR Blue



OR RED?

 

to damn many options

 

It's that time again. Car is back from paint at Chaotic Customs. Firewall and innershields were painted. We're rolling the car in to drop the motor in it. There was a lot of help (cuz there wuz a lot of beer).

Check out that color!




Got it in the shop.



Gonna drop this in it! Jack decided the motor needed to be flaked!



And after a lot of cussing it's in there!



It's in...time for beer!



Rolled it outside for more pictures.



Straight on view.



Other side

 

That is looking great. I love this car. Keep up the good work. Hopefully someday my shoebox will look half this good.

 

Thanks, still have a long ways to go, hopefully will be back at Chaotic customs in a month for final paint and glass

 

It really is going to be a neat color on that car.

 

wow that is turning out really good !!! >>>>.

 

Looks Great!!

 

lookin' good!

 

The shoebox looks great and the y-böock disapered on the road!

Thanks, still got the yblock in the coupe, but this ones a 302, but still a ford!

 

Mmmmmm that looks purty Jack!!!

But, I think that you should paint the outside the same color as the firewall and engine....looks a little weird with the gray exterior!!! LOL!!

 

Looks cool Jack. Can't wait til you "get er done". Only have one question, in the photos seems like everyone is holding a tool, mig welder, band saw, grinder, etc., but all I ever see you holding is a beer???????
Enjoy your retirement.....

 

I miss all of the fun! Good to see you guys this weekend, can't wait to cruise along side her on the way to Viva and Roundup!

 

Great color choice. I can't wait to see more- thanks for posting!

 

WOW, Jimmy what a great idea, think i'll take ya up on that!

 

nice, very tastefully done chop!

 

Thanks am enjoying the retirement, only problem is i don't get any time off! But you know me , the best tool in my shop is a cold one!

 

That Jimmy is full of those good ideas. Great color Jack. You are doing good.
Later,
Dick

 

Thank you, gotta give all the credit on the chop to Hub Harness, he did a great job on her, 4 inchs out of the A pillers, laid the rear window down perfect!

 

Yes he does, told Chris Carlson owner of Chaotic customs, i wanted a light silver blue, lavender, violet, purple............ He called me a few days later with a panel shot, hit it right on the head, exactly what i was looking for. Oh plus a little pearl...........Guy is great with colors.

 

Your ride is coming along nice! gonna look killer in paint.. can't wait to see it.

 

Wow, checkin back to see progress, and hot damn does that look fab! So again, see it in Salina? selfish behavior on my part. Tasty!! ~sololobo~

 

thanks, me too waiting on headers, should have been here today, get them on then the inter fender panels, they're all painted, just want to get headers on first, shit this is fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I'm looking forward to more. The chop looks great!

 

Hell yea! It's exciting when you can see the light and the end of the tunnel.

I'm just about there too... pushing to make Salina... see you there?

 

wish i could see salina, to much to do, but devlin show in january is a plan for the first show with her

 

this is an awesome build by a lot of talented people. Kan't wait to watch the progress.
Gonna be a kool ride. Happy Trails, Mick
