  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    Finally, it's back where it needs to be to continue work....

    this is my 'body shop' probably electrical too

    the first victim

    So at the same time, the 50 Sedanet is coming back in.... I was going to build a show car, now I might just make something really fast and no body work...
    but I digress, next up on the Wagon is unload it, then start back into putting the quarter on. Once that's done, paint the underside and bolt it to the frame ... then make it run, then body work then 'poof' done.... ugh

    Nice shop! Looks like you have quite a bit of work space now.

    a year and a half. I've been kind of busy but FINALLY I'm back on this (and about a billion other things)...

    So, this Sunday I drove to Seattle to buy this
    [​IMG]
    so I had a full day, I went ahead and went to my neice's wedding (no pictures of that, though)
    first step was to weld up the trim holes
    [​IMG]
    then do the same thing on the other fender... then finish up the heavy metal work. Still needs some tapping and such but it's in its final, basic shape

    now I can bury Don in bodywork on Sunday (I have strange friends, as evidenced by his love of bondo work)

    Have you always been in Woodinville? That's right up the road from me...

    not sure I know who that is....

    Don got more done on this today
    this is the 'new' fender
    [​IMG]

    he did the same with the other fender... apparently I didn't get a picture of the hood he got mostly done too....
    the person we might both know is Anthony Schmidt. I've been in the background with him for awhile - right now we're building a 54 Chevrolet pickup... of course I also know Paul Stanley (but who doesn't?)
