[Chuckbizkits]

Tack welding as I go.

 

[Chuckbizkits]

Welds ground smooth.

 

[Chuckbizkits]

A little filler.

 

[Chuckbizkits]

A little body work.

man... must be nice to have that kind of time to work on it. This thing is going to be quite a car, any ideas on the color?

I only work on it on the weekend. I'm thinking white but nothing is official yet.

That is a great build, early A's are not the easiest car to build, i have done 2 of them.

 

[Chuckbizkits]

The bumpers on early A Bodies do not fit very well. I cut them down and moved the brackets in to get a nice tight fit.

Removed 3/4" from each side.

 

[Chuckbizkits]

Cut out the L/P hanger from the center.

 

[Chuckbizkits]

Filled the bolt holes and added studs.

 

[Chuckbizkits]

Nice and tight.

 

[Chuckbizkits]

Ground smooth. Ready for chrome or paint. Haven't decided.

Sent all of the moulding, trim, grill, etc. to King of Trim. They did a great job. Highly recommend them.

When I removed the trim pieces 90% of the dry brittle clips broke. Of course like just about everything else on this car, they are not available anywhere. So I made my own out of 16 gge stainless and stainless hardware.

You're alive!

The front turn signals on a 1964 Plymouth Valiant are hideous! No bezel - just kind of hanging there.

I'm going to remove them and put them in the front valance.

 

[MonkeyMadness]

I'm really starting to not like you, and that's only out of pure personal jealousy....


j/k maybe

 

[Chuckbizkits]

More front valance work.

 

[Chuckbizkits]

A little grinding and finish work.

 

[Chuckbizkits]

Rear end arrived. Brand X 9" from Quick Performance.

Set the pinion angle and tacked the perches in place. I set it at 0 degrees since there's a lot of adjustment in the 4 link RMS Lynx rear suspension set up.
