Thanks Motor' ! I'm having way too much fun with this one ...

Got the other door done and left rocker panel tacked in. [ Today I got started on the pickup bed, made a frame from 1" tube and got the side and front panels started, more to do on them yet...[[ .At this point I'm scratching my head to find a way to make the hood and sides out of the metal I have left [S - it's amazing to think that two 4' x 10' sheets could have been used up making this little body, all that wiill be left is little scraps.

Sounds like a plan - I'll just bang it out in my spare time , lol. Only thing to overcome is death by angry wife...

Added the corner posts to the box sides and welded 'em all up - then when I put it together and set it in place, found that the front posts hit the tires - have to slice a little off........

Heh, Heh, hmmmm - [S brews can go under the hood and the sticks can go upright I figger..

 

[the reverend muddy grimes]

this almost makes me wanna take up golf. I just never could get past the name. Heard a rumor that it stood for "gentlemen only, ladies forbidden" which always made me question the lpga.

Sounds like BALANCE to me!!!

Just went thru the whole thread....Awsome[cl All this building, I'll ask the question no one has touched yet...what's the paint scheme going to be or have you not thought about that yet? One color with lace pattern as they did in the old days, plus since it'd the "Wife's", you could get away with it.[S
I remember as a kid my friends Dad worked at the airport and brought home one of those luggage toters home, gas engine and the fastest thing we ever had to ride then. It was cool til we went thru someone front ditch/yard and the cops showed up. It went back to the airport
Later John T.[cl

Ahh, paint.........y'know when women get involved, colour is going to come up.. personally I'd like to leave it bare with a clear coat but I know that'll never pass. The latest favorite colour is a Ford blue, saw it on a new Mustang, real nice, almost purple. I love those old 60's - 70's lace and cobweb psycadelic paint jobs, I was a kid then and they left a definite impression. (again, not wife approved ). Great story on the luggage carrier!

Finished the metal work on the box and made the tailgate and lower rear panel. Think I'll put a wood floor in it, it will need a hump in it like a model A so the electric motor doesn't whack the floor.

It sounds like I've already lost the drag race ! Oh well, mine is just for puttin' around anyway, besides if my wife is going to be driving it the electric motor is plenty - still has more class than a Prius !!

Got a couple things done today, column drop, trimmed the rubber mat to fit, fit the package tray under the cowl and the all-important bevvie holders!

 

[Charley Davidson]

Was gonna ask if you were gonna emboss any artwork into the tail gate with your bead roller, very nice job.[dr[cl[cl[cl[cl

Although my vote doesn't count I vote for Viper blue for paint[dr
