Re: Before and After Photos
Before/After. All original, never restored, just cleaned it up and drove it.

Re: Before and After Photos
"3738" - Did you have a "paintless dent repair" guy straighten out the front drivers fender? Your car looks great.

Re: Before and After Photos
I concur, my adjective is precious! I felt young again looking at that sedan's insides.

Tubman,
I took a hammer and dolly and worked the fender dent out some. It is still dented, just not as extreme. Before/after of interior and 60 hp engine |

Re: Before and After Photos
Here is my 32 roadster project. I bought the roadster as a very rough channeled car around 1969. I did all the metal work building and rebuilding body to frame brackets including a floor-subframe from a 32 Tudor that I bought from Montana. I fabricated the outer sills and filled multiple extra holes in my frame. Luckily a had two excellent original cars, owned by others, to use for reference.

Re: Before and After Photos
How do you guys get water stains out of original upholstery like door panels?

Re: Before and After Photos
Tony, I remember your FB posts when you first got this car. I'm glad you kept it original, looks great. Hoping I get to see this one in June at the Dearborn GNM.

Re: Before and After Photos
Very nice cars and COE, guys! Hats Off for your DIY skills.
(It always amazes me at the loads the old trucks were subjected to; stopping distances had to be great!). |
