Since I'm just starting out on my latest project a 56 Convertible I figured I'd start a thread for folks to watch as it progresses and to give credit to Jason for all his hard work and his talent. As most of you guys know, The FOLKS really dont show alot of there builds on the net but it was important to me and to give credit to Jason and his work.
First steps were to tear the car apart and pull it off the pan, next step is to cut out the rusted or twisted metal and put in some fresh clean metal....So I had the shell shipped over to the only place in Sacramento that I trust to tackled a job like this "The Resurrection Project". Jason the owner/fabricator did some great welding and fabrication work on Yustrn vert and I liked what i seen so i talked to Jason classic weekend and here we are now. |

You've definitely picked a craftsman to do the work Rich!!
Jason has some unbelieveable metal working skills....and he's a real straight up guy too!!
I for one will be watchingthis build closely.....all the way from Australia.
Dont forget to post lots of pics please!!
All the best with your build mate!
