Hi everyone,

I have not got out to the garage much this winter, but I got a few things done.

I welded the rear cross brace to the frame rails, also started to make cross bracing for the engine compartment as well.

Hi everyone,
It's been awhile since I have posted so here goes......First I mocked up paper patterns , then out of metal.

I made inner fender supports with flat bar (1/8) then made a t pattern on them

I got most of the export brace done now and also got the motor mounts fully welded.

Hi everyone,

I have been working the center console , first I made a wooden frame work , then a paper pattern.

Next came a 1/4 inch solid round bar as an inner frame work . Then the sheet metal to cover it up.

I used the original console  cover from the car.

Hi Matchless, that would be mine . I had it storage for years and finally brought it home , I didn’t have the room when was building the car. It is a 1928 Ford Model A special coupe , I found it in the Old auto’s newspaper years ago. It has a 350 Chevy with a 700r4 transmission. It is all steel except for the fenders. I filled in the roof as well.

Hi everyone, I have been working on the engine compartment for the last months as well as the floor pan finishing it up. I find that I can only stay in the garage for a little while because of the fumes from the bondo I have a box fan that I use to get the air moving around better Dennis

Hi everyone, I have been working on the driveshaft loop cover to clean it up in that area. I have put a bead around it just to dress it up, when the weather gets warmer i'll finish it off. I also made some holes to put my emergency brake cables and use rubber grommets to protect the cables.

Hi everyone, I have been working on the rear end lately. I had an old engine stand up in the loft {garage} so I thought that I would make a jig to hold the housing on . it would make it easier to work on since i don't have a lot of floor space in the garage.

Hi Pugsly, & matchless thanks for your response, I build the engine stand fixture a while ago. No offense on the “hoop“ comment, I was out in the garage today and working on the rocker panel and also made a bulkhead connector the other day.
