SHOP UPDATE: Joe's 1950 Ford rag top.



I just thought I would post a couple of shots of Joe's rag top before it goes into storage. Lane is coming over to get all the " critter stuff "  removed from the inside and pressure wash everything out before I stuff it into storage for the summer. The more I look at this car the more I realize just how nice this car is. It is very straight and the rust is minimal. Should be a great start for a very cool project.

SHOP UPDATE: Getting a little done in the shop



I finished the motor mounts on John's 41 a few days ago. I spent most of the day swapping wheels and tires around trying to figure the best height and fit for the 41.
Jason stopped by this evening with the Rat Panel and we installed the new canvas top. I think it really turned out awesome. I will post a few more photos on Sunday when I pull it out in the daylight.
Now I must go fishing for a couple of days.

The engine is back in. I test fit the headers for clearance before I build the motor mounts. Everything looks good so far. I set the cab on to see how much setback for the firewall. looks like three inches will do it. Time to cut!
