Good job and a great score on the parts . Like don says let us know we can pull a tape anytime . You do have a chore in front of you .

the problem is, when you have a mouth as big as mine..... it's easy to bite off more than you can chew lol

It's definitely going to be alot of werk, I'm sure at some point I'll regret these words but I look forward to it. this will be the worst start for a project I have ever done... hopefully I'm up to the challenge

Looking good, is that dealer local.

Nice project ....... your correct ....... looks like stevie wonder did the chop ..... but hay it's metal & can be fixed.

I'm in on this thread build.

Don - if I knew you had the A bone body I would have traded those '46 parts for it!!!

O/T - How's Dan taking the down time??

REGS

Paul, it isn't mine.......it's Dans body. He's doing better. Had a good interview today and has two people that called him today for interviews tomorrow. Both of the ones tomorrow look really good. Thanks for asking.

Josh, sorry to hijack..........back to regularly scheduled rod building.

Street your top looks good I did mine and about the same level . I had a 25 yr old metal guy come over in a bout a hour he had this . He shrunk and stretched the metal with some hammer dolly and fixed my work .

Me too Pro he did it so tight it will only need a skim coat . But the 2 days he was here working on the 31 I learned a lot about shrinking and stretching metal .

p.s., why the heck are my pictures so big?

************************************

Josh, try 800x600

What do you use to resize your pics?

And thanks for keeping us posted on your build, its great!

900x1200 usually

pic test of my right paw man @ 800x600.... wish I could take him to werk.
He's the biggest baby in the world (unless your a small animal treat) but he makes people nervous

Man we are so swamped at werk it's hard to get time to werk on this.
I have a few small updates, and a ton of little things that don't translate in pictures, but kill a lot of time.

I've located, and measured 3 different model A's and gotten help online,to get accurate measurements to fix the body on this sucker.

It humors me how we are going to rebuild this car close to factory spec, so we can cut out alot of werk, and customize it... how it goes lol

man this thing looks like a porcupine

Nice jump on the repairs ...... looks like you'll be getting your fill of lower panel replacement soon.

Ratty 46

Glad you did some work on ur ride, I wished your wife valentines day at the swap meet you made her work........LOL
bradc

I'm a slave driver, lol
she love's to werk the shows, I have to fight with her to let me go to them anymore.


I have been kicking around what to do about the roof, buy the insert, or buy the tool to make the insert

well..... take a guess which one won
shipped out today, I can't wait to pinch my fingers in to submission

Cool Tool
