Building a Hot Rod from scratch 2.0

- Jim Parker from NH is a welder/fabricator/rigger. Jim also loves collector cars, for years he has dreamt about building his own original design scratch-built hot rod. Last year he attended my four day coachbuilding class and at the class he told me he intended to sign up for my Extended Learning Program, so he could get his hot rod project started. In January Jim arrived with his stake body truck loaded with a 32 Ford frame kit purchased from Steve's House of Speed for $1800.00 delivered. The following week he purchased 4 new tires and wire wheels
( $2000) from Coker Tire, he added a Mustang rear end
( $350.00) - and he had a roller to start his build on. He purchased a Pontiac Solstice donor car for it's four cylinder engine and five speed transmission.
Jim wanted a boat tail design. I started him off by first defining the cockpit so he could fit comfortably and have good foot pedal room and placement. Once the cockpit design was set he moved on to the center side profile line. I had Jim wire-form that first line step back 20 feet and he could see the dream car taking shape with just that one line. That line eventually evolved to it's ideal position and then another and another wire was added. Wire-forming is an organic process- the car almost designs itself once you set the process in motion.

Who are the 4 creeps who claim to know better? Your work is fantastic and the car looks fantastic too!
The ball is rolling
Looks good, I built my own 8 years ago,,,I would round the front windshield to keep it schematical, looks Crockett otherwise,
Hello Wray, what measures are taken to prevent galvanic corrosion where the two different metals meet?
That is a common concern easily remedied by insulation between the metals- paint, powder coating, rubber, plastic tape , etc. It is really a non issue.😁😁😁
BOA TARDE, ONDE ESTÁ O VIDEO DO RESTO DA CONSTRUÇÃO DO CARRO ? PARABENS.
Meu aluno está terminando o carro em sua própria loja
VOU TENTAR COPIAR ESSE VEICULO, TENHO ALGUMAS FERRAMENTAS.
AGORA VOÇÉO QUE FAZ COM A ESTRUTURA METALICA QUE ESTÁNO CARRO VOCÊ COLOCA AS CHAPAS POR CIMA?
La estrutura metalica que voce esta olhando e temporal, so para fazer as chapas. La estrutura metalica final va ser feita de tuberia de 90mm. Mais para frente vou mostrar o video do proceso. Obrigado.
Sorry symmetrical, everything looks great but the windshield cowl, to suddle, makes it look Crockett,
Boring... ffs... great looking car... but seriously...
Are you supposed to be a professional? Those are NOT 'floor boards'. They are floor panels.
Working at my grandfather's restoration shop back in the 1960s and 70s we worked on coach built body J Duesenbergs, Packards, Rolls Royces, Stutzs, etc. All of the floors were boards. I guess floors of cars in my mind will always be floorboards.😁😁😁
SledgeHammer you my friend are a dumbass Dumbass Dumbass
@@plymouth-hl20ton37 He's just another dumb ass troll trying to get a rise out of someone. If he knew what the hell he was talking about he'd know they've been called floorboards since the beginning of car manufacturing.
You are in jail I can tell MR sledgehammer.
I always though a board goes on the floor/ flat (running board) and a panel on a wall/ vertical(panel van) . In the end does it really make a difference the build is done right.
