Big Al Leibmann's 1936 Dodge Coupe |
||||||||
Finally after waiting for Bill of Moonlite Kustoms to free up his schedule... My Dodge is on the way for a new black paint job. I have to say it was well worth it (almost a year) for Bill to take this project into his shop. I am looking looking forward to the progress and completion of my 1936 Dodge from Moonlite Kustoms late January 2009... Parting is such sweet sarrow but worth the wait. Next stop, new interior by Richard's Trimworks of Hewitt, NJ P.S. Yes, it was black before since the build opter to go two tone a few years ago... Should have listened to the wife the first time. |

As promised, we start off with a great update. I got a lot done on the Dodge this weekend, a little more than I had even hoped. | |
Your passenger door is now 90% perfect. Opens and closes with one finger and gaps are nice | |
The top is a lot better than it was as far as sitting flush with the body. Without really cutting into it; that's the best it will get for now. Its the same if not better than the driver side. | |
The one hoodside is also fitting better on the driver side. I was able to pull it closer to the cowl and it seems to fit a lot nicer. I'm waiting on some countersunk bolds to get the hood and pass side hood side working together nicely. It's apart as I need it to be and 75% prepped. It needs some small spots of icing and some more detailed hand wet sanding as well as the jambs and cowl prepped. Maybe two more days of prep and then I can put the color on the body. Then onto detail work; right on schedule. | |
Check out the new paint on body and wheels | |
