Hi Everyone, Steve, I keep saying to myself that I'm seeing a brand new 1934 Roadster being born. Actually it will probably be nicer than new with that beautiful work you did on the paint job, frame, and mechanicals. You started with a beautiful car and it looks like you're taking your time and really making it like you want it. I applaud!
Can you tell me what tires you have on it now? Are those the ones you're going to have on it when finished? I really like their look.
The tires are Coker Firestone 4-Ply 3" White Wall 5.25-5.50-17
A request: Can you take some photos when you put the side-curtain mounts into the doors?
I will take some photos of the area for you.
I'm curious about where the rods go in, and where the snaps attach to the doors and the hardware used. The arrangement is very similar to my '36 Phaeton, which has ten pieces of curtain to put on. Those places are solid on my car, but I've seen ones where there was a lot of wobble at those places, and have always wondered how that stuff goes together and how one would try to fix issues.
I have all the hardware for the side curtains but I haven't had the curtains made yet I was waiting until I completed the car. I do have the Leberon Bonney side curtian patterns which I still need to mockup to the car and then send the patterns back so they can manufacture them specifically for my car.
I used the satellites to look at Babb, what a place that must be to live. At least they have mail and beverages.
Yes there Isn't much in Babb, Montana its about an 1 1/2 hour drive for me to the U.S.A boarder as of yesterday my interior shipment was in Spokane so it shipped from Amesbury, MA to Spokane and then back to Montana. Hopefully I will receive notification that it has arrived today./COLOR]
Thanks for sharing your experiences. I sure hope to get to see your car in person some day.
