Thanks guys I'm trying to step up my A-Game.

Got one latch done and ready to go in, but need to get the other side done so I have a pattern to work off of. So now the rest of the week is just a repeat of this week.

Passenger side latch is in and working. Didn't like the look of the old door handle hole, thought about filling it but the side of the car was missing something so started to make a false handle but now maybe turning into a working handle.

Thanks guys

Got started lining the back of the tub, good old cut, weld and grind. set the dash and a window post, not liking the look. think I'll keep the shape of the dash and extend it out to meet the body, sink it back a little more. Windshield I'm thinking something more on the line of what zzrodder did on his golf-rod.

Got to thinking about the floor, May put the tin on the underside to seal it up and line in between all the 1" with pine. I'll shine up the 1" maybe burn the pine (like in the pics) and lacquer over everything.

Thanks guys.

Bob those corners are no fun at all, compound radius and a twist at the top. Got the back of the tub done, but like always I can't leave things alone, so now making a second set for a deck lid across the back.
 
Working on the license plate recess. Going to put the fuel filler behind the plate.

Looks like you are moving right along with all the curved pieces of framework!
Those mounts are killer for the windshield & rear view mirror. Is this the look you will have when the windshield is in?
