Looks really good, you do great work. I have a question, what size tires are on that thing?

Not sure but I will look and get back to ya bout that.

 

[cosmic12]

The tires are 670/15 Firestones.
I know it don't look like much but getting these doors on and working has been a chore. I had to make a old GM mirror stand work on it and also got the spot light on and working.
I am having a hard time splitting my time up between 3 projects in 2 different shops.

 

[1952B3b23]

Looks good. Thanks for the tire size info.

[cosmic12]

It might not look like it but I have been getting a lot done on this thing. The Interior is all done all the glass is in and it is running and drive'n again.
was finally nice enough out side to get it out.

Looks great! How much longer you think till shes totally out the door?

-Chris

Soon I hope! still have to get the fenders painted. It needs to go so I can get the Malibu SS-LS in because that one has to be done early July for the Nats, here in Syracuse. Its tough being a one man show

The truck is really sharp, cosmic12.

Don't answer this if you don't want to, but I'm curious, do you charge a shop rate or bid the project for a total price?

 

[05snopro440]

It's looking good!

Am I the only one that thinks it would look sweet like this with just the hood put on? That's going to look awesome finished!

I put an estimate on it usually within say 1k and leave the material costs open and get that back as I go. This one has gone over budget by quite a bit because it has turned into a much deeper resto than we 1st planned but the truck is worth it.

Gona find out next week I hope! The hood is about ready for paint and will be going on it before the fenders. Stay tuned

 

[1952B3b23]

Yea cant wait to see it with just the hood on, id bet it'll look real cool. I really like this truck, these old plymouths are one of my favorites.

-Chris

 

[cosmic12]

For you guys that wanted to see it with the hood on, it won't be long now, got all the sections in paint today.

 

[cosmic12]

Took these pics real quick today not real good but I ran outa time. Hood no fenders.

 

[Dirtyrat]

That is a beautiful truck, you have done an excellent job!

 

[cosmic12]
