Second Wind - a Packard Gasser

[Old Iron]

That's some top notch work

I recently learned that the cool kids are using the stuff in the link below to cover their wire looms.
I tried both the 1" and the 1/2" and was very happy with it. BTW the Gasser is looking great!

Yes, I picked up on that in my last couple builds, using it again on this one. Looks tidy and easy to open up for changes or tracing problems.

We've also been using that loom in our projects. Super clean lookin

I used that same loom on my car. Looks more old original than the ribbed plastic style. I bought mine off eBay.
Entire car is looking good ZZ. Looking forward to seeing pics of it in your normal background places.

Dropped the mockup lump back in to finish up some engine wiring etc. It's back out now for disassembly and to send the block off for machine work - as soon as my credit card cools off some.. 🤯

The machine shop will take a bite out of your card.

Car is looking killer!!!! That wire loom is nice!! Definitely looks better than the plastic ribbed stuff!!

More purple! Got a piece of purple acrylic and installed it as the rear window. Don't think I'll do it on the side windows, probably drive me nuts after a while..

 

[Old Stuff]

The Fonz would approve for sure.

Got busy with my pencils today, trying to come up with some Gasser appropriate door art...
"Weird scenes inside the gold Mine...."

That's my kind of art work! Love me some Rat Fink!

Looking good. I really like the purple back window, but coloured side windows for a street car would be too much I think.

 

[zzrodder]

Put in the side windows, door panels and window trim, also made some door handle/armrests from wood, paint and scrap vinyl for zero dollars. Interior is basically done except for installing the front kick panels....

 

[Old Stuff]

Nice. I like how the light through the back window throws a purple look on the back seat. Would be a definitely be a wild backup color choice for those.

Looking good!!!
