Topic: Car Pics

[Reconsgt]

I spent the mornin g working on my Dad's rod, He wants it all redone so I stared reworking the front fenders and grill, pulled the engine and firewall, My brother in law works at a fab shop and will be making a polished stainless steel panel to replace the gray panel I removed. All in all it went smooth but I would much rather work on these things at my own garage as I am more fully supplied for the big jobs but, as the next series of pics will show, mine is full with my Buick GS and a 1937 Buick coupe. I will eventually end up with Dad's 34 so it's all good   The grill was a pain in the arse, getting all the fins redone and sanded, next is primer and paint for the grill, and body work on teh rod, then off to paint hopefully by months end.

Now my garage full of projects, My GS is comming along, got the floors cut out pics show only 1 side done, now they are all removed, and just need to wait til early Sept, to get the rest of the floor pans and sheet metal in, there is a large show that I will be picking up the new tin at to save on shipping, next will then be a 12 point cage and then working on the back halving of the car. This one will be a long term project, not a full restoration but a modern interpitation of a street machine.  The 37 is done but has a V6 in it so that will be getting a 350 chevy at some point this fall.

Thats a lot of red! I do like the body style though. Seems to me like a lot of new muscle type cars of mods of the newer Ford Mustangs.

As some of you have noticed I have been scare as of late, I had alot going on but I can share a couple of the time killers here.

I got my Dad's 34 back from paint and had to start putting it back together, the pics are from my cell phone so once done I will shoot some better ones with a real camera

last year I pulled it all apart and made some changes. Now it's a big model kit that had to be reassembled. So her are some progress pics of the body done and engine put back in,

last pics are of my 55 I started a week ago, I put the front end back on that, and dropped the 454 in, this hopefully will be done and painted next summer as it is obviosly just in black primer right now as I fit everything in.

Your dad's ride is looking pretty sweet! Can't wait to watch the progress on the 55. That big block ought to make her move!

Here is my 1967 Mustang!!

You might call it my best custom!!!


I've had it for 4 years.

Hope you guy's like it!!

[Clonehead]

Sweet ride, Rich! Now that is a classic. What all have you done to it?

[darknsour]

I had it repainted a couple of years ago. it has a rebuilt 289 .

the guy before me put in a cd player and new radio other then that everything else came with the car!!

the numbers match cause the block is orignal.

thanks

Got this shot of myself posing in front of a bumble bee camaro at a bike rally in Branson, this weekend.

Took Dad's finished car to the first show and took 1st in it's class, that makes me happy as there was alot of time and effort put into this one over the last year,
The first shot is washed with sunlight the second really shows the color well.

Man that is awesome! Great effort on it and all the work really shows through. Love the color you chose for it.

[Phatty]

Man, Wayne, that '34 is amazing looking!  And I can't wait to see what you do with your new '55. 

Rich, that is a nice ride.  Nice ride, indeed.

Clint, I'm thinking you need to get you one of those new Camaros!
