Latest update from Distinctive Motors (shop and Caddy)

[Brian Fishburn]

Since Zed posted the progress shots of his '58 Caddy, I thought it might be time to post pics of the latest progress on Coupe Devil, and the inside of the DM shop.

Most of the paint is done on this room of the shop, just need to paint the door and the threshhold trim for the opening to the other room

Once the paintwork and wiring is done, it will be time to start adding the equipment for the shop. I'm already working on some of it. Here's the lathe. It's the SEL lathe kit, with scratchbuilt work light and quick release toolpost.

Gonna need a torch set (or two) This one has reworked shutoff valves and regulators. Still not done, but, like the lathe, I'm trying to make the equipment look used.

As for Coupe Devil, most of the recent work had been on the mechanicals and interior. The body is stalled until the interior is done, as there is a bit of engineering left to do. The engine is close

The rear suspension is almost ready to drop in

The full-on custom interior has turned out to be a lot more work than expected. It took 8-10 tried on the console before I got something close to what I envisioned. It's finally coming togther, though.

Very cool! I particularly love the lathe!

The Coupe Devil is coming along nicely as well.

Thanks,

Way to go Brian!
