'34 Ford

[Drago]

Hi folks.

That’s my actual project: a ’34 Ford chopped & channeled

This is my inspiration:

I’ll try to replicate it the closest as I can.

#1# Roof smoothed and top chopped

[Drago]

#2# Chassi’s rear panel sectioned

#3# Body pillars modification

#4# Frame modification

[Drago]

#5# Interior’s height shortened (edges will be smoothed)

#6# Rear panels

[Drago]

#7# New window’s edges (it also will be smoothed)

#8# New body lines

#9# New gas tank

Assembly test…

Tips and comments are welcome!!!

PS: I’m having trouble to find some good reference of this panel:

Does anyone can help me? How does it finishes close to the chassis?

Excellent work, not an easy task converting the 5 Window to a 3 Window but as you're proving it can be done if you're willing to invest the time.

I don't know if you have the article from Rod and Custom on Robert Lomas' '34, it might help with your question about the firewall.

Beautiful reworking of this model. Nice approach to both the 3-window conversion and the rear area of the chassis. What are your plans for the front end? With another one of these on my to-do list I'll be watching your progress with great interest.

I really like the conversion to 3window and the chop!!

The '34 Ford 3w coupe is one of my alltime favorite hotrods!!

Thanks for sharing,
