What a cool little altered. :D Love the stance and wheelbase on it. Are you gonna drag it? You should. Between that and the Willys you will have your own racing team. lol

Jim, do you still have the green '27 roadster, or did you sell it?

33 altered

It looks to me that you had body sand blasted. was sand the media of choice? was there any issues with warpage? also could you share what was done to body to get the "finished metal" look? D/A what grit paper? By the the way, awesome build you sure got skills.
 
It was sandblasted. My blaster is very good so he assures me of no warpage. After getting the car all stitched up I sanded it with a d.a in 80 grit. This car was cut into an unbelievable amount of pieces in order to chop, channel, section and shorten it up, so stitching it up left a lot of grinding marks. the 80 grit really helped to smooth it all out.
