Right now, about a year ago.....

 

I finally got my poor ol' beat-up box pretty much done. I still have a few dents and dings to fix but the floor is in, gas tank door finished, front panel replaced and the rear crossmember repaired so the sides don't wiggle anymore. I know how you guys like pictures so here are a few. Also a short video of the engine starting and running today.

 

That flatty sounds Nice pete!

 

Great pics Pete, sounds sweet

 

 

What R U gonna use for a fuel tank, filler neck and gas cap?

 

I built a tank from stainless steel, the filler neck is coming off of an old Dodge pickup, and the gas cap is from an old 60's hearse,
has a nice round chrome bezel, the gas cap fits inside.

Next is a bit of filler, another coat of primer, and on to paint!

 

Keep those pictures coming.

 

It looks good even in black satin, well done so far

 

lets see some more pics of this meadow green 53!

 

Current stage. Almost complete . Parking lights & hood is all that is left .

 

I have to ask, wheres the hood, she looks awesome

 

Hood is at the body / paint shop . Will be done mid June .Looking for a set of original '51 -'52 parking light housings . The repro china made POS do not fit correctly .

 

10-4, good luck finding the proper lights, some one on here has to have a set

 

Good day!
