'36 Ford rebuild

[espo]

Got the firewall notched to clear the engine that got mounted too high in the chassis. I had to wing it on the motor mounts since they had been removed at one point long ago. Now that that fiasco is over, I can now get the body in place and start wiring the coil and run the fuel lines.

You a Niner's fan? That color pallet has me seeing San Francisco 49er colors. Nice work, engine is nicely done.

High Zack. As for the color it was something that I liked. In fact, we have owned several cars in a similar color range in 1:1 scale. Even when I lived in California, I wasn't a 9ers fan. I'm a transplant to the Kansas City area since '96 and became a Chiefs fan since Andy Reed came to town.
