1934 Dodge Full Body Off Restoration by Ian_Greenlaw

10 minute(s) of a 362 minute read

Hey all,

Just finished installing all the door stops. Found a piece of the window runner channel missing so I'll have to make up a new piece and probably rivit into place.

Got 4 speakers from where I work and these are used in TV's so they are very skinny. I put them in the back of the car near the rear window and I'll hide two in the front as well. This plus the little amp and all you'll see when finished is a round disk at the rear of the glovebox which has hidden a USB and headphone input jack. A little bit modern and all hidden.

Cheers

Ian

Thanks for the translation and thanks for the message Peter K. AS promised here are some shots of the day. I'd guess there were 10,000 people wandering around the gardens and there were many different things to see but especially for me the 100th anniversary of the Dodge made it more enjoyable.

More pics.......

And more .......

and still going..........

still some more shots............

Last lot...........

A couple of questions / requests some of you guys may be able to help me with :

1/ The metal plate that sits on the lower cowl near the running board ( ive posted a pic ). Does anyone have a good closeup shot of this as I want to get mine restored.

2/ The bar under the front seat that operates the seat sliding mechanism ( pic attached )...is this suppose to have the bends in it or is it dead straight ?

Just little things but still important.

Took all the garnish moulds to the blaster today and once done and coated with an acrylic primer, they'll be ready for the woodgraining effect.

Cheers

Ian
