Well it snowed here today so that's it for the year. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) I found this photo my son Aric took this fall.

Is that a bug eye'd Sprite? We have some new neighbors that bought a house up the street and they have two of these covered up in the driveway. I always loved those cars!

I just reread the entire thread Rick. You do such nice work! I think I missed how the hood is black? Wrap? For us California people, how does that shelter work at keeping the weather out?

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/blush.gif) The Hood was painted black as a last minute attempt to get the car rolling. I have a second hood to paint body color but I didn't have it prepped. The black hood is wrinkle finish. I hid a couple small hail dents that I left in it. Can't see any imperfections in the finish. I actually like it enough I may just leave it on. The shed works but sweats inside. I am going to add some vents you use when you shrink wrap boats to get some weather proof venting. We shall see how it holds up for the winter with the snow around it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) |

rich, you might consider a couple of notched 2x material propped under the ridge to help with the snow load during a big event.

Ya I'm a little concerned about that but there's no place to do that with the car in there. I think I'm going to add some ratchet straps across the inside to make a triangle out of the top inside.

Yeah hoping to see you at Route Rick! Kinda suck to be driving your 914 in that weather. We just had a weird snow storm here. I had a good foot & a half at my house. Just pisses me off as we just got most the sand/rocks off the road from December. Now I have to deal with that shit for another 2 months. At least I just replaced my last cracked windshield just in time (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/blowup.gif) Just rent a bobcat. My wife just weaseled out of rt66 (not that I didn't know all along). Cold as hell all over and it don wanna stop! Still I have new shocks to break in and a CHT to fret over for 3,000 miles so I thiink I better book my room. Do you want me to come with a garden shovel? |

Absolutely beautiful work. I'm so glad I didn't have that car hauled off to the junk yard.

QUOTE(bryanf @ Feb 19 2014, 08:56 PM) Absolutely beautiful work. I'm so glad I didn't have that car hauled off to the junk yard. For those that don't remember Bryan offered this car up as a parts cars due to the serious hit in the nose. I took one good look at the photos and knew it was too solid to cut up. Bryan gave me the opportunity to get the car and save it. There were a couple ways the repairs could have gone. Quick and dirty or the long way around the horn. Because Bryan purchased the car after the wreck with the intension of using it for parts I ended up sourcing stuff from a Minnesota rust bucket and the classifieds here. My goal was to build it to a high standard. I think I was able to get close. Sandy and I are looking forward to our first long distance award! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif) Thanks again Bryan. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) I still owe you a turn behind the wheel next time we get it out west. |

Just read the entire thread for the first time. Beautiful work. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) Wish I had time to learn the bodywork skills or had the $ to pay someone to do it for me. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
Love the color. Keep the black hood. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif) |
