Wingman9... you're right! He makes the rest of us look like a bunch of hacks!

It's really amazing the world that the internet has opened up for all of us. We would never have had access to builds like this or the people who are so very good at their crafts and hobbies. I feel so lucky to be able to rub elbows with guys like Ken and all the others on here who freely take their time and share their hard earned secrets with everyone else.

It also raises the bar for the rest of us to see how the real experts build an engine, or craft an unbelievable creation from drawings on the garage floor.

Here you go...

wingman9- Nice car, do you go to any of the local shows?

I got to spend a little time on the sedan, I wanted to get some more of the strength back in the body after removing all the wood. I used 1"x 2" .065 rectangular tubing to tie the A pillar to the B pillar, then 1 1/2"x3/4x.065 that slips inside the 1"x2" from the B pillar down to the wheel well tub.
I don't have a rectangular tubing bender so I made 9 pie cut slits in the tubing then bent it 90 degrees to form it, then welded up the cuts. made some 3/16" bungs and welded them inside the tubing so I could mount the panel for the window regulators.
starting on filling the roof next week.
