Default 35 Ford front sheet metal

Made some progress today on the 35, or at least it feels like it.

Very nice! It took me some hours to put my front end together and get the hood to fit right. Looks like you are on your way with this one. What body style is it?

Lawson, this has been an on-off project that I started when I was 11or12. I asked my dad, whose car it was, if I could get it out of my Grandma's barn. That was 50yrs ago, I didn't get much done but got him interested in the car again. The rest is just a boring story of small gains and more storage,untill about 4 years ago when I started all over again. It's been fun. Thanks

You are making great progress and it is looking great. I didn't get into this hobby until I was in my mid 30's. Now that I'm 79 things have slowed down considerably. At least, the truck is now off of my bucket list. LOL
