Car show season

2010-07-28T09:38:00.000-07:00

Lots of shows going on in the summer, the Mooneyes show in irwindale was hot and crowded! but lots of fun- got a chance to host my buddy deek from Tulare CA who brought down his great looking bike. At camp cavalier the beer was flowing, good times with all my pals for sure.

Another step closer to paint

2010-07-23T13:27:00.000-07:00

I spent the last week putting the car together to make sure everything was fitted properly before paint. And sure enough had to drill some new holes for the trim, easy enough to deal with now- bummer if it was discovered after paint! Planning on driving the car in primer for a week or so and make sure the body work doesnt do anything weird. Then I will tear it down again and sand on the car a little more.

All one color!

A milestone of sorts was reached this weekend on the 41 project. Not the final color yet but having it in primer helps me see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Beatnik Show

2010-04-25T09:21:00.000-07:00

For me, being born and raised in socal, I sometimes take for granted the beauty of this place. Saturday we drove up and down PCH for the beatnik show. Awesome weather- took a couple pics of what I think is one of the great drives in socal. These are in malibu.

Meet my in-house body man Roberto. He speaks no english and my spanish is horrible- its a miracle we can communicate at all and get anything done. Roberto has worked with me on the last 3 or 4 cars I've done, hes great.

its chopped

Here's some pics of the chop itself. So far we have about 20 hours into the chop. Tons of welding, and grinding.

The metal work is just about done now and I stated the bodywork. Its a huge dusty mess in the shop but is satisfying to see the progress.

I started this blog to document the progress of this project along with others I will be starting. The 41 was started a week after I purchased it (12/09). I am hopeing to have it on the road by the summer (06/10). The project included a 5" chop which was laid out by Matt Means (Department of Customs, Anaheim). Matt is a super talented painter, metal man, and all around gearhead. I appreciate his work on this project.
