I built this out of what was left of a 28 chevy truck [frame,cowl,grill shell & parking brake handle] and made just about everything else like the body,doors,door latches,dash,shifters,seat,windsheild frame,rear 3 link,intake & headers and so on. Here's some of the build.

Needed the space so I could move forward on the Woody I'm buildin, I need a bigger shop like most guys.
 
I sure hope you got enough for that ride....

Cause it is sweet!! Now I know why you hated to see it go...I used to have a brick carriage house that I called a garage...it was barely 20x20...then I got this pole barn at 60x40 and now my kid wants to build another one next to it. The never seems to be enough room cause you just fill it up again...(sounds like a George Carlin routine "Stuff") Loved that guy....
 
thats my favorite one you have built... the details are awesome
 
WOW

what a sweet ride it is so basic looking but once you really start to look at it you see some real detailed workmenship classic looking roadster.
Great work love the red spoke rims it makes that ride really pop[dr

Yeah, it doesn't matter how big your shop is it ain't big enough. And I love me some old George Carlin.
 
Daaaang!! That is awesome. Are those rivets or just painted like that?

Love the inliner too.

Thanks man, and those are rivets that I did with a hand riveter in one day because I forgot to order an air riveter and I had a show I wanted to make.
