some work i am doing on a 30 roadster
heres the start! dug inot the driver side cowl today found a mix of cement and some red oxide filler of sorts ![]() cut out the mess and found a solid area to work with ![]() welded up the inner piece and seam sealed it up ![]() ![]() i made the body line on the harbor freight bead roller with the step die and some work to give it crown . way easier to make your own in my opinion then mess with patch panels ![]() ![]() finished up ![]() this crack is really throwing the alignment of the door off on the bottom. its on the top rail you could say on the quarter panel ![]() crack open ![]() craack closed.makes the door fit waaaay tighter to the body ![]() ground a bunch more useless red oxide out of the door now its loking like a nice solid start! ![]()

Nice work! I'll bet I can find 3 houses for sale in the neighborhood if you, Marco, and Brent want to move in.

Heck, I got a finished basement - carpet, TV, pool table, beds - all ready for 'em to move into - country life, pond full of fish in the backyard, and my wife's a great cook! ![]() Seriously, Flop, for one of your "tender" years, you obviously have great talent - I'm 2-1/2 times your age and wouldn't have a clue where to start doing the stuff you do. BTW, just curious - any idea what those roadster cowl lights are from? Definitely not Model A. |

Thanks-that's what I use, but I was wondering how you got those nice,straight lines. I guess I have to be more careful.

Hey Flop, keep up the great work and especially keep up the pictures and posting. Your pictures bring back great memories of my own endless hours of sheetmetal working-you're an inspiration, kind of makes me itch to get the ol sheetmetal work underway on something. If only I had the time......
