Nice work folks! Greetings from Alberta.

[@coldstreamrodshop]

Thanks! Glad to hear from fellow Canadians.

Great job guys. Camera 🎥 lady did great. You guys should drive it down to our Midwest Roadster Run coming up in 2 weekends

[@coldstreamrodshop]

Thanks for the invite but that's one heck of a drive for us! Thanks for watching and commenting!

Thank you for the detailed explanation on the panel assembly and materials. I’m tempted to try and do panels for my 40

[@martyscncgarage5275]

Thanks for the upholstery overview Derek. Seems like you guys need to invest in a hand or canister steamer. Doesn't look like Helmistik 1635 is readily available after searching for it. I have an inquiry into the US Distributor to see.

Thanks for sharing this video, your skills are amazing!!

[@harold.degand]

Very good job. Another great, interesting and useful video. I presume you have to drill the holes in the body before paint or did you after ?

[@geofo60]

A bit late to see the video Derek, but I thoroughly enjoyed watching. Having been fortunate to have done an upholstery course whilst I worked for a BMW dealership many years ago and learning the tricks of the trade, I think you and your good lady have done an admirable job 👍. Maybe speak to your upholstery friend and see if he could loan you a steamer to ease the wrinkles out of the leather.
Regards as always from the UK 🇬🇧👍👍👍

[@coldstreamrodshop]

Geof, will the steamer help much? We can get one. We do have and upholstery friend coaching us and he said sometimes you just have to live with some wrinkles in leather. He said it's not as forgiving as vinyl or cloth.

[@geofo60]

Hi Derek, both my previous roadster & my current one were trimmed in Connolly leather, neither had/have wrinkles. I think it may be worth a try with a dedicated upholstery steamer. Did you apply adhesive to the entire reverse side, or just around the perimeter ? I'm sure you will find a solution, look forward to seeing the next instalment. Have a good weekend 👍

I’m a little late in watching this great video. I’m using the same seat in my roadster project and wonder if you have any details of the modifications to the seat mounts used. Thank for sharing all your knowledge.

[@coldstreamrodshop]

If you message me I instagram I can send you pictures of what we did with this seat on the 32 pickup. For the roadster they built brackets from flat bars. I think it was 1/8" x 1 bar or 3/16" x 1" bars.

du très beau travail que vous réalisez , j'adore votre pick up bleu , est ce votre métier la réalisation de ces véhicule ou juste une passion ?

[@coldstreamrodshop]

c'était mon passe-temps, mais je me suis transformé en travail sur les voitures d'autres personnes.

Is the oak piece a one-piece item? Looks like a seam in the camera.

[@coldstreamrodshop]

The oak is one piece yes.

[@timferriss905]

So will this run a bop top or similar or will be an open car? Or would you make bows and a top for it. I wish mine was this far along. I’m going to start practicing making some panels. I’ve never had a go before. Many thanks for the tips on the dimensions of the panels, and the clips.

[@coldstreamrodshop]

It will have a one piece top. The owner makes it out of 1/2" tubing and it can be taken on and off easily.

[@brokenbonegarage8910]

Great job Sir,
Is this a real Ford like the coupes repaired using seconds from Brookville, or you completely built it like your other roadster?

[@coldstreamrodshop]

This is a seconds Brookeville roadster body. It's on an original 32 frame. We've been asked to resurrect an original 32 roadster next year like we are doing the coupes. As soon as we get it we'll do videos of that as well.

[@brokenbonegarage8910]

@@coldstreamrodshop Beautiful ride.
Looking forward to your progress on any of them LOL
Thanks.
