Hello

Just found you guy's I have been trying to restore a 41 Tudor for a good two years now and getting close but like all things its an up hill battle two steps forward three back.

This is what it looked like when I started

Basically just looked like it needed a repaint right? well thats not how it went.

I dont know what happened too all the pics I had on that web sight its like most are gone I will have to re post them but please follow along from that last link and see whats up so far i promise to go and add too it as I know every one loves pics dont pay attention to cameras date stamps as there wrong. wish I had found this sight earlier I bet some of you guys know wheres Therese a parts car or two and that would have helped immensely as I really did need all new fenders on the right side but was forced to learn how to straiten them out myself. I am NO body man but I am trying to learn a few things.

Let me know if that last link doesnt work

Congrats on doing such a good job on your 41 and not giving up. Restoring a car is not easy and fast. Looks great.

Hi again
Well I updated my Photo bucket file for the ford there's now over 200 pics in there to look at, sorry most of them are out of order I will have to get in there and do some organizing. and delete the dual copies as well.

Im still needing a few odds and ends plus I have two pieces of sheet metal I took off the front end I cant figure out how they go back in there like two air deflectors that go in the front but I cant figure it out I will try to post pictures of them later maybe you guys can help me figure out how they go back together????
