Well Ladies and Gentlemen, there it is! The first real progress has started on the old car project. We have a rolling chassis again. Thank god, that sucker is heavy to move with out wheels under it!
Jack, you can now see the progress of your car coming back together.
I can honestly say, with out a doubt, you will never find another 1936 Oldsmobile with a more beautiful, original chassis under her! It is a shame we have to put a body on this and cover it back up forever, but we now have the photo evidence of how beautiful it is.
Thanks to Lou and Tony at Section 8 Powder Coating for all your hard work, powder coating all the parts and making this all look so good!
Everything about this chassis and suspension is new and or rebuilt, down to the rubber on the bump stops for the rear springs. Most of the chassis and hardware is powdercoated as well so it will never again have a speck of rust or corrosion on it again!
Front shocks rebuilt, front springs blasted and powdercoated, front suspension and steering powdercoated and looking better than factory new!
Four new tires mounted (Thank you, Discount Tire Co.), new brakes, rebuilt rear differential thanks to Jesse and the guys at Baker Machinery.
All that is left to do here is some fuel lines brake lines and mount a refurbished gas tank.
Oh and I guess an engine will be nice!....I guess you will have to wait and see how that comes out.
This car will be finished by the end of 2012!
I have to finish it before the end of the world right?
Don't tell me you are not laughing a little right now. :)
