james curl Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 Don, I frequent the HAMB site and try to help the flathead MoPar people there. I recommend they visit this site if they have a flathead MoPar powered car. I tell them the rules about no bashing the vendors or flaming a poster and no profanity. I think we will welcome anyone who is trying to keep an old MoPar on the road. I also suggest that they visit the home page for the information there. I saw his post there and invited him over.

JerseyHarold Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 Screwshiney, I live in Freehold and saw that car in Matawan several weeks ago. Definitely runs very well. Nice to see it found a new home. You certainly made a lot of progress on it. I've got a '51 and '52 Plymouth and have been into them for a long time. If you have any questions drop me a PM and maybe I can help. Harold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

screwshiney Posted December 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 i did screw around with the interior last night for a while and i think it came out much better than expected. thankfully the material i got was nice and heavy and streched real nice. only one door left too and i ran out of staples . i still need to make front kick panels, b pillars and do the headliner which actually just came in today. then figure out something for the seats. out with the old... in with the new Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg g Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 Take a look at the Krylon camo paint. I know it comes in spray bombs, but I think I saw it in pints and quarts also. It's really ultra flat, so maybe a top coat of a semi flatened clear coat would give you a nice satin finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

screwshiney Posted December 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2009 haha sweet i'm not entirely crazy. thanks guys. i just got the headliner material yesterday so i should be able to finish it up this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screwshiney Posted December 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2009 well seeing how we got 2' of snow here this weekend it was the perfect time to lock myself in the garage and get some stuff done. i got the rest of the trim pieces made and even experimented with some piping. i started to mock up the headliner but decided to coat the floor first. i did 1 heavy coat top and bottom. i still need to make the rest of the pedal piece too. also we finally got some heat hooked up. my buddy found a furnace in the trash and 50 bucks later for a new igniter we had heat. the shop is big but it does take the chill away and while it's 30* outside you can't see your breath inside. good enough for me. first things first HEAT! it's a bit crude but it does the job. kick panels, i used 1/8" airline and wraped the fabric around that then glued it to the panel.

screwshiney Posted December 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 hope everyone had a nice christmas. got a little bit done over the holiday. i got some heat barrier from work and did the roof and front floor pans. got my new rockers in, i kinda screwed up on the pass side but measured twice on the d/s before cutting finished off the bottom of the d/s floor pan cover w/ some old wheel tubs i had laying around. i also made a new engine and headlight harness. i used a headlight harness from a 67 chevy and random wires i had from a newer chevy harness. now i will be able to have parking and turn signals front and back. i also fit my new to me blinker assembly in there and will wire that up this week once i get a flasher. oh and i got little screw covers for all the door and trim panels. also picked up the fabric for the seats. i'm going to do the front in olive drab green and the back in poop brown, then the back of the front seat will alos be poop.

screwshiney Posted December 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 haha. we actually sell it, it's made by thermo-tec. it is self stick and comes in a few different sizes. the roof was pretty cold but it stuck real nice. i even hit it with a torch to kinda form it a bit more and you couldn't even see any scorch marks. it's very workable and pretty stout too. http://www.xtremediesel.com/search.aspx?manufacturer=73 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
