More drip rails & body work

It looks like I'm officially updating the blog again, and I plan on getting this on the road this spring. Tonight I finished up the drivers side drip rail and tackled the big gap at the back from the chop.

Drip rails

For some reason this idea came to me when I was removing the pile of metal that had been stored in the car over the summer and I had to see if it would work. I used the inside window trim from my model A, and on my shortened car one per side is all I need.

From this point I will be finishing both sides then welding from the inside and cleaning off outside tacks, the cleaning up, body work, etc. but these look the part in my eyes and its vintage steel from the car.





















A shot from farther back, you can see only the back section is on, I need to use the vertical piece that I cut off to finish the front part.
