Coupe is looking killer Dave, I'm not a fender man but those are looking really good.' You are one of the best.
Truck is looking good Stovebolt, low and lean.
Pro I can't believe the quality of your work, your killing me!! Your car is Kicking ass, even though you think it's coming together slowly, it's coming along very nicely. Hang in there bud.
Thanks Brick, just hoping it meets Tom's expectations when finished.... He'll probably even get a gold star for hiring the handicapped!!!!!!!:LOL: :LOL: :LOL: :LOL:
Who's handicapped?Quote:

Got to watch out for those darn nails. I had a similar incident. Really it wasnt my fault....it was the nails fault! :LOL: I was trying to nail blandex to the ceiling in my garage when I was building my house. Two taps to set the nail, and swing. Nail comes straight back into my eye. It lacerated and lifted the retina...all I saw was instant white light in that eye. :( Now I'm scared of nails. Now I always wear eye protection.Quote:

It wasn't my fault......:rolleyes:
I was in the process of nailing the outside plates for a cabin where two ends butt up against each other (twisted and not touching) and I pulled them together, thought I'd put a nail in to keep them lined up, my left hand pulling the bent one in place, when I thought....... this is TOO dangerous, so I pulled back and the nailer malfuntioned and shot me anyway........ guess I should have done the dangerous thing and shot the boards instead of my fingers:whacked: :whacked: :whacked:
Picture shows the corner of the boards right before I (red hat) went around to the other side and shot myself. Nice rusty nail:3dSMILE:
The nail went through two fingers and hit the third hard enough to make me loose that fingernail.
Hello guys, haven't been on here in a while (building my new house and shop) but now that thats done I have to pay for it. So this is my latest project (not mine) but its whats goin on. Its a 70 'cuda in bad shape but salvageable, the owner about had a heart attack after he saw the pics of the blasting and cutting out of all the rusted panels.:LOL: the second pic is where it is tonight. hope u like um
Lotsa work Panel but when done this way there better most the time then factory let them go.
Nice looking shop . seems to be enough room so you can stay busy there.
Welcome back! Looks like you're going to have a very nice Cuda when you get it done, keep us updated on the progress!

O-U-ch. That had to hurt. :eek:
I thought I'd push the "Z" outside since it's a fairly decent day to give the shop a quick clean-up. I couldn't leave it out there without takin' a few pics.

Really starting to shape up Pro!!!!! Hey, I found the five speed to put in it, with the shifter it's only $7500.00. Start making them signs!!!!!!!!
The area below the window is all better Tom. Took some heavy duty pingin' and dingin', and even a custom built T rear side window de-denting tool!!!! Also, got the splash apron straightened out and welded up.... Now all I have to do is try to make the other side match!!!!! Also got a couple more pieces built for the new front sheet metal on the 'maro. Hope to have them both in primer soon!!!!!!Quote:
