get 'er done weekend

No time wasted drinking beer.
Got some roadsters to work on damnit

unibit the corners
(notice the great old patch work?)

hard to see here,but it helps having the hole in the corners

will do some detail work later

the back of the body was hanging up
now it is sitting right

 

 

Colorado Kid is in the hood

1928 Oklahoma plate added to splash apron
hides the u-bolts etc..

morning wood

drove over to loweseagledepothomeclub and got a sheet off 3/4" plywood.
I just felt like making some sawdust.
And mock up work is fun on the roadster.
Will most likely build a steel floor when the time is right.

next thing is to trim out the rear wheel wells.Cuz the body ain't sitting flat yet.

bought cabinet grade plywood-damaged sheet was cheap

couple short screws from underneath to hold steady

trying out some old Ford bits for size

I think the seat riser will work with the mini van seat
yeah I do realize that the driveshaft needs to connect to the rear
