The beginning of the end! It’s been a long time coming and I can’t wait to get behind the wheel. I have to thank Peter for all his hard work!

very nice, it's one of those colours that looks black all the time except in bright sunlight
neil.
Just reread the whole thread, needed to recap. As Chris said previously "is the time line correct"?
It's going to be a beautiful car when complete, unless it is already!
Peter is very good
Nice one, 41 ford pu
The car has been going on for 13 years! I have hundreds , Maybee thousands of pictures detailing the work over the years. I kinda got a bit fed up at times and even at one point Maybee give up! However I had gone too far and had to Finnish car. I just stopped adding to the thread, just lost a bit of interest. I will start adding pictures that may be of interest to members. If it wasn’t for Peter, the car would never have got done!
Looks stunning.
Every man dies, not every man really lives.

I thought I would show some jobs that went on along the way. The 4 fenders came from Howells sheet metal in the US. however the fronts needed work to make fit. Luckily the rears were good and needed no work.
Nice one, gutting when things don’t fit but there all slightly different I guess!!

Bumper sticker - This is an historic vehicle and only has three speeds....... if you don't like this one you sure as hell won't like the others.
a mate restores classics (mainly fords) and says even the best new panels don't fit. body lines out, wings too short or too long, just lots of cutting about for a decent fit.
neil.
Finnished frame before green!
Th 350 GM Perfomance parts 300 HP crate motor + TH 350 box. Although only done 500 miles from new, been sitting around 13 years! Lots of shiny things to bolt on!

Forgot these pics! Chassis is the same colour as body, rest of components are black.
