    Now there is a couple of good looking guys!!! Well done Nick!!! It is great that you gave a shoutout to the forum. There may be the next NicksPick Crew out there that just needs a little help and encouragement. Just think of all the experience YOU now have. I hope you pass it on when you have the opportunity. All the best with the new adventure in PA. I wonder how many of the Engineering Prof's will the practical experience you do when you show-up...??? Take care, B

    This is one of those things that never seem to go back together the way it came apart. I have had several "Big Hammer Moments" on the brackets on the bench. I have probably had my hood off 6 times to "Adjust" it before I got it right... Not very good advise, I am afraid...

    Pete/Frank- Nice comments. The fact that Nick and the Crew are genuinely nice people only makes this whole thread better and makes us all want to help as much as we can. It will be GREAT when Nick pulls up to Penn State in THE car... Going to be EPIC!!!

    Ouch!! I guess I was lucky starting in the back. Short of starting over... How about making a bolster out of some of the maroon upper side-panel material. You could radius it along the contour of the window trim along the top? Even squared on top might not look bad.. I used foam core presentation board from Staples for my door panels. It is easy to work with, takes contact adhesive very well and is pliable enough to install on the slight radius of this area Definitely agree on the trim rings. I hung all of mine on the wall after paint and they were still a PAIN to get back on

    I have seen this done a number of different ways. I did mine to the just below the level of the lower window line. These photos are not great. I will try and get you better shots this evening

    The side panels look fantastic!!! I used a hotplate with a tea kettle and then broke-out mamma's blow dryer for the headliner... I almost over-did-it... Looks GREAT!!!!
  13. Bobby
    Yes and Definitely Yes on your last 2 posts... Good Luck with this!!!

    That is FANTASTIC Nick!!! This is a great opportunity for you and Penn State. While you are there, can you please do your part and encourage the Nittany Lions to WHOOP a little Ohio State Buckeye ass?

    This is awesome

    I would go all-in on the tilt front end idea!!!! Great Idea

    Hey Knuckle...None taken... Humble apologies for the pithy response. Just me being being a cranky old fart, as usual... Bob

    If Nick has a rear bumper assembly, I am happy to throw him a few bucks that he can put back into the car or whatever. I just PM'd you my email for pics I can come get it if it would be OK with you.
  19. Bobby
    Thanks for the expert tutelage... I am just looking for a rear bumper and am sorry I asked... Hope everyone has a great day

    The black welt is perfect. By the way... I don't mean to go off topic BUT... Does anyone know where I can find a rear bumper assembly? I need everything. I have considered taking a shot at making one but I sure like the look of the painted OEM Rear Bumper...

    Joanne Fabrics should have something. I ended-up at Hobby Lobby for mine...
  22. Bobby
    The glass looks great!!! I remember when I did mine a few years ago it started to feel like I was actually going to get this thing on the road... The car is awesome... Big "props" to you and the Crew I hope you go back through this blog years from now just to reflect on how far you have come. Enjoy the process!!!
  23. Bobby
    I REALLY like this look together... The contrast with the Welt is not something you see often... But then again, I am probably the "Crazy Uncle" of this forum sitting in the corner drinking beer and mumbling about how we leaded or glassed the seams on our cars...

    I have a couple of the inner door trim pieces from my 48 Special Deluxe if you need one. Identical to the one you posted
  25. Bobby
    Yeeee Hawwwww He kinda has a Lester Flat/Earl Scruggs vibe going on... Throw in the '47 Special Deluxe and we could have a renaissance man here! Hope he has a good time
