Here is a quick rundown of the last year in the life of my '34.
Here is last September. ![]() Looks like a car. ![]() Roof chop. ![]() This is today. ![]() Rear end. ![]() Side shot. ![]() The kid helped me bang together the short block. ![]() Not to be confused with some candy assed street rod with a sissy Chevvie crate motor, this ol girl displaces 462 inches and will make 500 horse. ![]() Last one. ![]() Next, I take her apart for paint, body and final assembly. She will be done maybe early summer or so. See ya, -Abone. |

dumb Q
how do you get custom glass made when you chop the roof? I can see getting a flat plane made, or cutting a flat window how do you get like a compound curve for a rear window? nice work.

What I have seen done is lay out, mask off and then sandblast the glass away.

What's up Jeff? Long time no see. Looks like my "A" sedan is in slow motion build mode. Car looks great as usual. You do great work. Richard

Very wicked.
![]() I was building a 429 powered '65 F100 till somebody made me a deal on a Lightning I couldn't refuse. I'm sure I will miss it real bad when the L needs some work. Can't beat the simplicity of the classics.
