1936 Cabriolet
well l finely got it finished. putting on the grill and the hood took longer then it took to get the motor in and running. the old gal sure runs good. i had a few things to rap up today. my friend is going to take his wife out to dinner in it today. he is like a little kid. and verry happy!

Re: 1936 Cabriolet
Georgeous! Very nice job. What are the 2 things on the top of the headlights?
You should post a picture of the car before you started working on it so eveyone can see a miracle. |

Re: 1936 Cabriolet

Re: 1936 Cabriolet
Looking good Brendan! It's always good to see another early Ford V8 back on the road. Plus you made another V8'er very happy. Now, when can you schedule a trip to Maryland to help me put one of my 35's back together?

Re: 1936 Cabriolet
Looks great. 36 front end is the hardest thing in the world to get correct.

Re: 1936 Cabriolet
I am proud to say Brendan is my cousin and has always had an infinite love for automobiles especially the old ones, he has always been very helpful and generous. He has helped me on my ol' 47 a time or two, and wired my entire garage where I work on all my cars now.
He's a good guy and does extremely wonderful work.
