Finally! I'm happy with stance, and panel fit. The fenders look good from
a distance, but need a bunch of fine tuning. I'll show that in later posts.

Wow, that's sweet.. it'll be an awesome ride when completed. Nice work right there.

Wow, nailed it perfectly for stance and ride height. Love the way the wheel / tyres fit and fill the guards / fenders . Absolutely looking like a very desirable car and love the hemi in it. A friend of mine who is going through a messy divorce has stored his original Moon rocker covers, twin 4 barrel manifold with twin Carters which are for his hemi powered '32 Roadster plus a NOS set of fender skirts for his '37 Ford Coupe in my garage at the moment. The shame of it is my T has a SBC so I can't make use of them. He is pulling the triple carb manifold off the flatty in the '37 also before everything is valued to get the valvues down.

It flat out looks awesome! Great work!

Thanks for the encouragement guys! Those 'Moon' valve covers sound
awesome, I've got a repo set of chrome covers I'm going to use.

Made a hammer form for the trans cover.

Heres the tools I used to beat the snot out of it. The cheap muffler gun has a
quick release collar,and a 'planishing head' available on e-bay. It helps make a tight
definition around the edges.

After initial planishing it's close, still needs a little work.

I always new I was going to cut the piece off here, but the hammer form had to
shaped to get the proper form in this area.

Tacked some braces on so I could work on the bench.

Had to use 3 pieces to fill that area in, but happy with it.
