This one photo at a time shit is killing me!
They say that patience is a virtue Tony. Whom ever they are……:)
It was when I was doing the bench seat mods for my custom that it really struck me as to how much time I had put into that build.
I spent more time on that seat then I did welding the two hoods together.
Looking great Barry.

From Barry… (with 2 pictures, especially for Tony)
“Finally got hood latch set up… works well…(suprise)”
“Ok…now working on trunk latching..hope this works out..”

From Barry…
“Making patterns for the windshield…wish I would have saved old ones…at least I’d have it half right.”
And quarter windows… sorry, fuzzy picture…

Really enjoy following your build thread a lot of inspiration, like the louvers I was on the fence about louvering my hood but seeing yours I really think they look good, plus I have two hoods that makes it easier
From Barry…
“Cut some of the new gasket away.
New rubber is impressive…old days we had to save it.. hardly any repo rubber.
Final cuts to come..”

From Barry…
“Finally….glass in the gasket… little help from Murphy’s Soap….slick as snot on a door knob….now I gotta find some fool to help me put it in…”

From Barry…
“Just finished the other vent window…using my method of heating over steel pattern . Cutting and welding you have to chrome it..my way just polish it out.”

From Barry…
“I just got windwing in frame… making a pin for pivot as the shape of these frames make stock pivot hard to handle.
BUT…..look at this pivot…I can’t believe it works…let’s see some pivots on 41 to 46 Fords.
Interesting.”

From Barry…
“Right vent trimmed and set …had rubber in and is good…now polish and glass.
Glass has to be true so frame is not stretched which would throw off pivots.”

Very cool…I normally do the cut, weld, and chrome routine for vent windows but I have heated and bent them in the past. After seeing this, I think I will try it again. Chrome is expensive and more risk of warping from buffing. The last set I got back had some issues…
