ok cranky........we are waiting buddy! bring it on! bryan

thanks dan! i just couldnt bring myself to put that 5.0 in there!! LOL cheers bryan

ok there is going to be a slight change! now way can i put that modern 5.0 liter in this car.....no way! so i found a flattie with ardun heads!!! more to come! thanks for lookin cheers bryan m

I cannot stop looking through this build!! such amazing work. keep it going, i cant wait to see it complete........ cheers bryan

i keep coming back to this build, and it is beautiful Geoff, the one thing i am takin away from it is your drying times.......i usually do weathered/rusty/crusty stuff.... but when i did shiney builds, i worked on them like you do....... paint a part, then just let it dry till tomorrow. that always makes for a very neat and clean job! theres nothing worse than painting a part, and then being in a rush, next thing you know theres a ###### thumbprint in it! LOL i hate when that happens! keep up the beautiful work Geoff, this thing is going to be amazing! cheers Bryan

WOW!! I AM TOTALLY BLOWN AWAY BY THIS!!!!!!!!!!! way beyond the scope of anything i could ever hope to do! beautiful work!! bryan

im workin on the flat head for this one now..........it wil have ardun heads, and maybe, just maybe a blower!! not sure yet! more to come bryan

lookin good cranky!! bryan

yea its that time cranky! i would have gotten more done last nite, but my neck wouldnt let me! so i had to lie down for a bit..... stay tuned Bryan

yep! thats where i first saw it too! more to come bryan

no that is cool!!! keep it goin! bryan

no, i didnt do it, Ken Hamilton did. all I did was cut open the doors and trunk lid, primed it, and then ken did the rest. i should build it, ive had it back here for well over a year! cheers bryan

Heres the one that Ken did the hinges for me......i couldnt show you how the hood works because it has to be assembled for it to work, and i would have to paint it first. heres a couple shots, thanks to Ken again! he even added a stop for me so they wont swing inward..... the trunk lid has a catch on it to hold it open!! ok back to work! more to come bryan

nice trick for BMF, ill have to try that next time...... you did a great job wiring/plumbing that engine geoff, very nice work. cheers bryan

thanks guys, i might sit and cut the doors and trunk lid out tonight after i get a little more done on the 49. im glad i have a set of Kens hinges here to look at so i can make nice ones! now theres a build i have to finish! remember that 49 merc that ken made hinges for me? i cut open the doors and trunk lid, and sent it to him, and he made the hinges for me.........he also reverse hinged the hood for me. hmmm, lemme find a pic of that thing and ill post it, stay tuned! cheers bryan

thanks again Dan! im glad you like my site, one day i will get it all up there. i have all my tips, tricks and tutorials in my computer its just a matter of takin the time to get them all up there. i also notice on that page that i have a problem with the margins, the outline white lettering how to kinda spills over into the 8 ball tutorial.......ill fix it soon, its buggin me! LOL more to come! Bryan M

wow! this is one beautiful build geoff, i like how you did the contrast color on the seats, that really made a big difference. the paint is incredible, and if this was your first time wiring an engine, you did one helluva job!! what a great build, keep it going, i wanna see more.... cheers! bryan m

thanks cranky, its so nice to be building again. im moving kinda slow though, i have to think about things before i do them because i am outta practice! LOL i cant roll em out quick like i used to. im not goin crazy on this one with details, just plug wires, rad hoses and heater hoses, and im not overly concerned with the underside either.... the next build will be full blown detail like i usually do. thanks again V Bryan

thanks cranky! my progress is movin slow today, hopefully ill have some good pics to post in a little while..... stay tuned cheers! bryan m

wow! im not a big fan of modern machinery either, but you are doin a killer job on this one matt! the interior is really sweet, and all that carbon fiber is just too cool... cheers bryan

wow! that is a good lookin kit! i love the color combo, and the engine is sweet.....cant wait to see more. cheers bryan m

oh man! great rust work, that body is awesome! keep it goin cheers bryan

i have already found my next project. it will be this 40 ford coupe. im gonna open the doors and the trunk lid, slam it on the ground, and of course weather it! it will be painted in either "jade" or "pistachio" satin, and lighty rusted, fat white walls, and whatever else i can think of.... it will be done like this one.....i always liked this car. back to the 49 for now, ill be starting on this one as soon as the 49 is done! cheers bryan
