I just had to get one ! Ya its a far cry from a 914 but surely my rust repair experience will pay off. Just like the 914 I'm going to do all the work myself. I've got some friends who build these, chop, channel blah blah blah. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif)

Boy does that bring back memmories, I have done or helped on 6 of those in my day. Chopping is a bitch, but , if you take it slow and think and plan ahead it will look great. Our 1st. was a 50 Ford, ended in the scrap pile. But learned on that, they were so plentyful then we just threw it away. We did 2 50 Fords, 2 Mercurys 51 Ford Con., a 34 Ford Sedan. Those were the days,went to school all day, we worked in the garage till 1;00 A.M. ,we had cots to sleep on ,set the alarm for 7;00 A.M. and did it again. God if I could have bottled that energy and enthusiasm it wouldn't take me all day to mow the grass . Please keep me ( us) informed of your progress. Dave (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif) P.S. Please ,Please, use LEAD`!!!!!!!!! |
