1933 Pontiac

[Old Iron]

Thanks all,
I haven't checked on the engine Torchie. Right now it would be in the way.

 

[Old Iron]

I worked on the car a little this afternoon.
A friend of mine has a waterjet machine and I told him I wanted some small Pontiac Indian head logos cut out.
The next day he had them.

I drilled a hole in the neck

Put one in each hairpin to use as my lower shock mounts

 

[Torchie]

Those are the kind of friends to have.....[cl
Torchie.

 

[Old Iron]

Got to do a little work today

Here's where the chief heads reside now as lower shock mounts

Here's how I mounted the shocks to the frame
Just enough clearance not to rub or bind

Everything is all painted and reassembled

I've got a little more rust patch work to do today then tomorrow I'll get some Chassis Saver for the underneath of the body.
At that point I can mount the body to the frame finally [dr
I'll have the engine day after tomorrow and will post pics

 

[Torchie]

Wow!
2 build threads at once.[cl
I can barely maintain one.
Can't wait to see pics of the nailhead.
Torchie.

Those Injuns look good there! [cl

That's a really pretty frame old iron. I'm really jealous of your skills. Maybe my next buil will look half as good as that.

 

[Old Iron]

Thanks for all the support and lookin in on me.

With the bolt through the neck he looks like "FrankenCheif"
Great looking chassis OI [cl[cl Can't wait to see the body go on.

Worth every ounce of effort for the looks you got....nice hairpin work!

 

[Old Iron]

I got the underside of the car painted with Chassis Saver yesterday, then had to move it off the lift for the 51 AD.

I'll do some more work on it Friday with more pics.

nice job [cl

 

[Dirtyrat]

I guess in this case, we need to keep the shiny side down =P

Nice work, looks great!

Well, I went to the tire shop at noon today and they put new tires on the front of my 40. I'll be cruisin the streets during the NSRA Mid America show in Springfield Mo this week end
I installed the dash in the 33 this afternoon plus, mocked up the steering column and wheel.

I will go to the show in the morning and snoop thru all the parts the vender's have and see what treasures I can find [ddd

This is one of the reasons you haven't seen updates on my builds.
The tanker company I do a lot of fabrication and repair work for, is upgrading the wash system I built them to food grade and needed a way to get the hoses up off the floor.
This hose dolly is 8' long collapsed to hold 10' hoses and 14' long extended to hold 20' hoses.
I've got two more pieces to build for them the first of the week then I can get back on my builds
