The latest project
 

It has been a while since I posted what I have been working on. After I finished my 55 chevrolet i decided I wasn’t going to restore cars anymore. The price of everything just got out of control. Well that didn't last long. My dad and I bought a 62 impala SS hard top. Body and original interior were ok but was sitting since 1986. 327 was locked up. I did a full mechanical restoration and made a fun driver. Then I got bored and wanted to build an open wheel car. I found a 1929 chevrolet coach body that was really solid. Bought a frame from bowling brother’s and started the custom fabrication. I removed 75% of the wood and replaced it with steel. Have a 6 deuce 327 for it. Its going to be a fun Rat rod. Then in the last month a purchased a 63 corvette roadster. Bought it from the second owner. Hasnt been on the road since 1974. Numbers matching 327 4sp car sebring silver with blue interior. Car was painted maroon pre 1970 when the second owner bought it. Did I say I was done restoring cars. Lol

The 63 corvette

Some more fabrication pictures of the 29.

I plan on making all my inner panels with a bead roller. Im going to paint the frame install the motor and transmision, wire it, then run it the way you see it. Should be a fun hot rod!

Been a while since I posted any up dates on the hot rod project. Frame is all painted and driveline in. I wasnt going to paint the body just scuff and clear. After I did so much work i realized it just would look right and drive me nuts with not matching. So I fixed all the rust and filled the 1000s of small 95 year old pin holes and CRE epoxy primed the body 3 times. On hold right now fir hunting season. I will get it painted this winter.

Lookin good!!

A couple more of the progress pictures.

I really enjoy seeing what you guys are working on.

Thanks for the updates from your journey as a lapsing "restore-aholic"��
