When you say 'lounge' i take it to mean a living room, and just how did he get it in there? I'm thinking it had to have come in thru the front door, right? So no pieces were larger than like a 32" door? is taht right? That is pretty amazing by itself.Quote:

Ojh, Steve has a small patio out the front of his living room with what we call "French doors that open wide enough to allow the car in so with the help of some well placed ramps and spot on steering, the car can be brought inside. Sadly,the car has been kicked out into the workshop again as he now has a woman living with him and although she is a petrolhead, owns a real nice 66 Mustang, she decided that cars in the living room is just a bit too much, no sense of humour some ladies eh.
They are Fiero seats with the headrest cut off and custom cut foam Rog.Quote:

Hey DA34GUY Did you build a car for Tin-man?
No doubt! Mine are Fiero too, but I left the headrests on with speakers for the radio added. I'm OK with the taller seat in the coupe.Quote:

Pat and Pepi,,You Guys are too kind!
Thank You.
In my hectic world right now, I had to come back and look at that flame job. All is right in the world right now. That is 1bad32 for sure! :cool:
I have had a 34 bumper in my long term parts storage, which is basically in, under, over, in a corner. When I mocked up her truck I had it hung, well dug it out and installed it. I think it makes the truck look more truck like. After I finsih the bed repair I'll shoot some better pics.

I like the bumper. But it clashes against that grille filler...
This is my Roadster in Front of Razorback stadium, In Fayetteville Ark.:3dSMILE:https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-d...616_163359.jpg

If only you could have finagled parking at mid-field, just above that big Razorback!!Quote:

Acquired cab, bed, 4 doors to make 2, got the hood and grill shell new, the rest I made. Was a 4 year project, would have been done sooner but I was traveling the East coast M-Th. The truck never left the garage from scrap to paint, built by owner and given to my wife. Would I do another yes but I would look for a body without all the problems dents, rust and all that goes along with that. Building the hard parts is much easier then the body work, however I will also say once you get the hang of working with filler it is not all that bad. The painting has two problems, first it goes way to fast for the amount of time spent for prep. Two one really needs the room to paint, as in booth. I created a booth had a 3 ton blower from an AC air handler with a 10 in. duct attached . Piped it into the room, worked extremely well, that thing pulled the over spray out and I got a dirt free paint job
How about your Deuce Henry original , or newly popped
As you can tell from the Picture,Show me Rod and Custom Body (A Guy Named Doug). Just like you I done everything else except for the interior and that's the part I'am not real please with. But I will be taking care of that in about three weeks.

I think you do. Welcome! Of course, you don't have to own a deuce to be here.
Here is a photo of my '32 that was taken by a fine arts photographer at GoodGuys Des Moines in July 2011. He then used his PhotoShop magic to create this photo.
