Hi All,

Here are a few progress photos. I got the steel body that I built finished, painted and installed on the chassis. Next to hang the doors and install the trunk. :kiltdance:

Hey man where you been? I posted awhile back about your ride and no one responded so I figured I must of spoke when I should of kept my mouth shut. Anyway it looks great. I really did miss your build. It was giving me good ideas on how to make a steel body. Anyway don't leave again. :foottap: Love the workmanship.

Howdy, Actually I have been on here many times just havent posted on my build recently due to uploading photo issues. I was getting a message that I had exceeded the limit so each time I tried it said that the file was too big even though it was resized correctly. Anyway, I am making good progress and it it nice to put items on and be able to leave them in place in lieu og just mockig up...
 
Hello Mr. Fixit, This Roadster reminds me of some of the wild rides that Big Daddy Roth built back in the '60's. Wild! I'm really looking forward to seeing what the car looks like as the build progresses. Have you decided on tires and wheels? Looks like there are some big ones going in the back?
 
OK ---I DO SEE THE PHOTO VERY NICE!!

I think a great personal plate to run would be = Daretobe Great to see some real different thinking with your build, very nice work... :)

I currently have T-FORTWO as my plate, but since this car is titled as a 1923, I will be changing it to the antique plate option that we have hare in Florida just to keep folks guessing what the heck it is..

Thnaks..
 
Nice to have you back Really great progress.
 
Nice to have you back Really great progress.

Thanks. I would like to show a few more photos, but no matter how I resize them, I get "error this upload failed" If anyone has any suggestions, I would appreciate it.
 
Here are a few more photos including the custom rear bumper that I fabricated from a piece of 3" steel channel.

Thanks Gerry. It took a lot of time to get it that way I wanted it, but now that it is chromed and in place, it was worth all of the effort.
