just picked up another 48 p

[thebelvedereman]

Just picked up a new project, 48 p, 4 door,, it was volare clipped before i got it, with full running gear, 318, auto, ps pb, volare column, nice job, but they really halfassed the wiring, it has the column harness and most of the front harness but nothing else, so i just ordered an EZ harness, solid body, but guy i bought it from tried to strip it with a grinder, hacked it all up, then left it for a few years, so now its all gouged up and loaded with surface rust, I'm going to have to spend 1000 hours sanding just like i didd on my 51

Love the lines on those cars. Classic '40s style. Maybe a rust remover product like one from Mastercoat would work for a project like this?

Sanding builds character.

If you do it "wax on" then "wax off" not only will you get your cardio work out you can also tell Chuck Norris off.

 

I have to sand mine someday as well, but I've been putting it off.

 

Still nice find.

Good one.

I think I'm gonna put the 51 full caps that I got from tim on it, I always loved the way they looked, had them on my 51 for a while, but then I went back to just rims

Nice, should be a good cruiser.

I think this is the color I'm going with, I want it to stand out from the crowd, I'm so tired of red and Satan black

[thebelvedereman]

just took her on the maiden voyage bench bled the master cylinder, got some brakes finally, so I cruised around the block a few times, weird ride with the frontend torsioned up so high, hard to see over that long nose, it will be better when the back is up, (did I mention its gonna be a gasser)

2 hours sanding down 998 to go painted the dash 60's Mopar big block aqua, it matches the seats nice, they need a good steam cleaning, but their in great shape
