1940 Ford Deluxe coupe build

[dirtcop]

I posted a before picture of my 1940 Ford coupe project in my introduction post, but I will repost here and show recent progress. It should be a great cruiser with independent front suspension, real leafs, sway bars front and rear, mild sbc, and a T56 six speed transmission. The color is grey-blue, a little darker than it shows in pictures. I used Dupont chroma premier - single stage. I'm in the middle of color sanding now. The last picture is what the car looked like when I bought it about five years ago (I started working on it about 1 1/2 years ago). The car had been a project in the early 80's and had been sitting in a garage for almost 30 years. The wheels and tires are only used during construction.
