after endless hours of brushing on 10 coats of varnish and sanding between each I think it is finally ready to put together. Plus my wife is giving me heat for turning the garage into what looks like a meth lab!!! I have a new respect for all that restore cars and especially woodies!!! It is often a labor of love...

you could eat off any area of this car it is so clean (well almost any area). The guy I bought it from was a stickler for detail. A great guy to buy a car from, I would not want to sell a car to him. This was a frame off restoration that was about 80% done when I got it. Thanks for the feedback, I will update the site with pictures as I get farther along..

Lookin' good Tom. I'm glad it's coming along and now it doesn't look too far away from being ready to be shown.

Very impressive car Tom!
This weekend was an antique car show in my town and there were somewhere between 50 and 100 woodies driving through town. Beautiful cars. Unfortunately most were from out of state so I didn't pick up any detailing jobs on them.
Had to settle for a '66 Imperial Convertible instead .
Sweet car!

Sounds like you had a nice show in town!!! If the woodie guys back there are anything like the guys on the west coast, they care for them themselves for the most part. On the west coast you are encouraged to drive your car to events not trailer it. It is pretty fun, when I am working on mine or have the garage open I constantly have people drive and stop by to ask questions and admire that era of car...Comment

all stock!!! Rebuilt flatehead v-8, suspension is the new leafs and springs, but the same as would have been on a original car. I am going to lower the front end slightly in the near future, but that is it!!!!!Comment
