    Something from Gibbon didn't fit? Imagine that. I have a tiny bit of experience with Gibbon products myself - with a long backstory.

    You are doing a terrific job on your '34. I'm really excited to see the rest of the progress. Sterling work.

    This one's not Gibbon, Jack. That's why it's going together so slick!!

    Roger, I was referring to the rear pan that had to be cut and fit. I could tell it was N & N from the beginning. I should have quoted the post I was referring to.

    Just had me confused - didn't see any mention of Gibbon in this thread, and couldn't see where it was coming from. I forgot about the source of the rear pan.

    I didn't do a build log, but I've put a few photos on photobucket at this link:

    I also have a short video that ended when the cameraman lost his nerve.

    Didn't intend to hijack your thread . . .

    BTW, I'm requesting that comments on my build not be made here. This is Parkwood's thread. I'm just answering his request.

    Thanks!

    I have been working on the coupe and not spending all my time posting pictures of the suburban... It doesn't look like anything is getting done but the wires all falling into place.. For you jack i did get the gibbons roll pan all bolted up with working lights... worked on getting the head lights wired and was going to install the inter fenders today but didn't like the rub out that came on them so i'll be doing a little rubbing on them tomorrow...

    Jack would love to heard about your long backstory but don't want to get you blood pressure up to high... the roll pan is the only thing i bought from Gibbons and i knew it wouldn't fit going in so i wasn't surprised... as soon as my wife lets me out of the house i'll get to work on it again and shoot some more pictures..glad you like it..
