It has been a adventure sofar that's for sure. At some point someone had rebuilt the box with 3/8 diamond plate on the floor and front panel. When they did this they welded 3 large I-beams that looked more like rail road rails onto the frame then welded the box to them. We had to use the tow...

LMAO!! the news paper was 1972 and it was packed in there hard! The funny thing is they had used the paper to mask off something they painted red and then stuffed it in the truck in a bunch of places. That's recycling!:rolleyes: Ya you have no idea what I found on this straight solid good...

SG, thanks, just answered back thanks again.:cool: I will start a build thread when we start it, might be a bit because we want to get most parts piled up before and the top is proving to be a tough one for sure.. If I had a 58 Impala I wouldn't want to cut it up no matter what shape it was...

I am doing this one with my buddie, he is doing all the mechanical stuff in his shop and that's where the final assembly will happen, just like we did the 37 Plymouth and that Malibu. Seems to work out great and I don't have to have the chassis hanging around taking up room at my place.

Been away from here to long started and finished a couple projects and still haven't gotten to play with my 52, just making a paycheck and can only fit one at a time in my shop. Anyway, started this 51 Chevy short box step side about a month ago. It came to us from N.H. all the way to Syr...

It truly is amazing how much you get done in a short time. And the quality of the work. Been away to long and had to go through a lot to catch up but WOW it is looking great! Another beautiful creation. Thank you so much for sharing with us.

Thanks sunny, I have to have a Impala roof though need the lines on the rear and it will help pancake it also.

Believe me you don't want to just use the rear doors things get all F'ed up been there done that ZZ photo shop is the answer way cool ride. Just go for it learn as you go and take yer time.

Hey guys, I haven't been around much lately although I have to ck in once in a while to ck ZZ's Packard out, man hes good. Anyway I been very busy doing these dam restos but now I finally have a guy that wants me to build a full kustom 54 Belair, Oh boy! I am think'n MoonGlow ya can't wait...

Geezz..... go away for a few weeks and look what happens!:rolleyes: Looks great! Almost time to head south isn't it? I would never be able to leave it at this point:eek:.

Got this 58 in the other day for a repaint. The owner had it done about 3 months ago but the guy that did it kinda screwed it up, it is full of dirt/dust and fisheyes, what a shame. So now I have to make it right.

Classy very very classy[cl

Beautiful![dr and on the first try[cl n

This was sold 2 years ago I believe. No I never finished the dash but ya it would have been very cool. At the street Rod nats this year I saw a lot of cars with 59/60 dash's in them I couldn't get over the # of them in everything from a glass Speedstar to a 30s pickup and a lot in between. Go...

Stretch the doors for sure!!!! I made the mistake of shorting the body on my 37 Pontiac 4 door and it just didn't work.

I concur :rolleyes:

OK, now you've done it.;) I here by officially announce that I am no longer or for that matter never have been a car builder/body man/tin knocker, I just give up!!!!:rolleyes: What you have done with that pile you started with and in the time you did it is just beyond anything I can...

For you guys that asked if my next one would be my 52, well I guess not. This is just a quickie. Putting floors in it and maybe rear body supports. I hope to have it out of here in a few days. Got a good start on it yesterday the replacements are from Goodmark and fit pretty good,just a prefit...

The Syracuse Nats are over and my obligation to this car is over. On to the next one.

It is done. Long Long hours and a lot of sweat and worries went into it but I can say I am proud of our latest creation and wonder what we could possibly do to top this one. It truly has far surpassed what we were hoping for in the ride and handling part. So smooth quite and steers so flat at...
