Let’s see what you’re working on this winter

[Ron Pilger]

Making progress on our 36 Coupes. LB engine block is in the engine shop at preset. Engine parts on order.

[Lawson Cox]

Will just be piddlin' on Apatchy ( My Avatar) as I feel up to it. LOL

[dwick01]

I am going to replace the clutch in my '47 super deluxe (my avatar). A brand new experience for me.

The pics shows my car after I shot it with PPG epoxy primer. I've since hit the car, doors hood, fenders & trunk lid with hi-fill primer, so I plan to spend the Winter sanding, sanding & more sanding, in between a heart surgery & back surgery. If it's ready for color by Spring, I'll be a happy camper!

Hoping to get a running motor in the 35, and take care of brakes so it’s drivable in the spring.

[Don]

Been wanting to paint my 36 for 5 or 6 years now,no need to get in a hurry!!!!

[GB SISSON]

Interior panels,all glass with hardware, and some good matching seats. In general, getting the interior complete and functional for next summer's road trips.

[Dave Castle]

Brakes are done, engine( 59A ) ready for paint, new trans, clutch, pp. Getting ready to reassemble !

Will need new gas tank,lines,fuel pump and carburetor rebuild...then on to brakes and etc.

[Rusk]

Gonna try to get this one back on the road after a 50+ year slumber...

[mercman from oz]

Where are all these Three Window Coupes appearing from? Love them.

[buzz4041]

Continue on the chassis and possibly get the flathead pulled for the start of the rebuild on the green pickup. Will do a good cleaning and check on the coupe also.

[flatford8]

Stop dragging my feet..... literally. ‘51 Tudor, motor has been done for awhile. Floor patch panels are made. I’m gonna get them welded in and hopefully get it rewired this winter. It’s no restoration. Just a dependable driver. I hope..... Mark

Finally got all the paint work done now the bugs in the engine to get to run as it should. Will install new clutch and pressure plate and maybe a U-joint. Then the brakes to be rebuilt with floaters to help them. Thinking about having the dash and window frames woodgrain. A good Manny parts to be nickel plated as they should be. Did get all new tires at Hershey. Trying to put the car back to original as Henry made it. Not easy.

[Talkwrench]

Well its coming into summer here..
Not a big project just about to fit a slingshot setup. I thought I'd be just about to fit the new engine ..but nooo, not much has happened since Easter when I dropped it off, except a lot of f*ck ups..
Yes there is a 94 and 97 on in the picture , its just for mock up but will run two 97's.

[Lawrie]

Rob, how is the engine coming along,I,m almost to afraid to ask.

[Talkwrench]

Ahhh Lawrie... Here's where we're at. Its been line bored and I had it crack tested [all ok] the crank / big ends has been done for the floating flanged bearings and I'd say about now the main bearings are being fitted - turned. The flywheel has been re-drilled for the 9" clutch and lightened a little. I intend to go out on Friday and see it all, then I will have it sent off for balancing.. So its starting to move finally...
