Thats some really nice work,, I like the tail lights,,
I just finished a 36 chev just like yours a couple of years ago,, except I put a LS1 , fatman front suspension and a 9" in the rear,,

Was the wood in the doors in good shape? I had to redo all mine with steel tubing.. including the big chunk of oak that holds the front cawl to the rear quarters,, It set with all 4 doors hanging open for 35 years, and that caused the bodt to sag in the middle, so the doors wouldn't fit or close.. had to pull it back together with a cargo binder strap

Nice work!! What kind of mesh did you use? And where did you get it?

It's just a expanded metal sheet. I found it in a do-it-yourself shop (I don't know if it's the right name in english)

One night, last winter, I made a bracket for the coil:

Nice work on the coil cover but I have to ask if your shop is in an underground cave!

... but I have to ask if your shop is in an underground cave!

Is it a joke? or a serious question? [S

I think maybe Paul_ J is probably refering to the U/G cave statement, because of the stone work behind the lathe. I wondered myself what that was, but assumed it was a wall,,,

Cave or no cave you do some nice work! Bravo![P

Your details are looking great. It is the little stuff that makes a great car.

What weight screen did you use on the grill?

Sorry, that was a bad attempt at humor. I was referring to the wall behind the lathe.

Keep up the good work!
