This is the body wood I have for the standard coupe (45A)
It's been sealed and Im trying to identify the pieces.
at the top is the U shaped pieces for the side windows.
at the bottom are the wood for the back window
To the left is the back portion for the seat and in the middle are the sides.
Identifying the rest and how to assemble is where I am at now. I haven't sealed the top wood yet.
The body metal has been prepared by a guy (photos here) from "Flop Custom" in Pittsburgh back in 2011/2012.
This is not to be a points car. Its to be a driver and enjoyed.
The body is in primer, on the frame and the engine runs but needs brakes completed. It's going to be hydraulic because that is the way my wife inherited it with 40s style hardware. I still need to run lines and get master cylinder mounted.
I've probably done many things 'ass backwards' in reassembly but I'll make due and get it running.
