This week I have put the body on for the second time, and will start installing body mounts.
Also I have built the rear bumper and trimmed body for a better fit.
Now things are starting to take shape and I will work on putting the door skins on and finishing body work next week.

This week I started out by torch welding 1/4 inch steel rod around all body panels, this helps to make panels stronger and gets rid of all sharp edges, this is a time consuming job but needs to be done.
Also this week I built shock mounting brackets and installed shocks, I also installed disc brake rotors on the 39 Ford spilndles  to replace the old brake system
This picture shows the car with door panels on for the first time.
This picture shows the car is really starting to take shape, my youngest son Levi is inside, he thinks it is about time to take a ride, but of course there will be many more hours of work before that happens.
