Here he comes!

My friend text me this from his work updating me he saw my car on the move!

A Little Car Pushin'.

Projects.

Persephone and Severus, two of my project cars. My cousin Ron (left) is buying my '53 Bel Air soon.

So, with replacement tires from the trunk my boys replaced the shredded tires. The lugs were so damn tight Eddie needed help, but my Sasquatch friend was too tall, so he helped with a pipe.

Oh Woe is Eddie.

Poor Eddie spent two days and a lot of money tracking down and getting a new fan for his '52 Pickup Rachel.. all the while I owned one hidden in the junk that came with my car. He wasn't sure he should laugh or cry.

Interior Pt. 5: Dash Detail

This is what Sev’s cab looked like after pulling the insulation and sweeping the dust and muck away. By no means is it ‘clean’ but this does clear away the distraction to give a better idea what I’m working with. The floors look to be the biggest problem (as one would expect.) This is more of the front.

Interior Pt. 4: Cab and Doors

This is what Sev’s cab looked like after pulling the insulation and sweeping the dust and muck away. By no means is it ‘clean’ but it does clear away the distraction to give a better idea what I’m working with. The floors look to be the biggest problem (as one would expect.) This is more of the back.

Interior Pt. 3: Cab

After pulling up most of the carpet insulation we discovered just how sloppy the people two owners ago were when it came to this car (if the garden hose radiator wasn't an indicator.) Some of the patch panels on the floor were obviously cut with the torch, and none of them were welded in, they weren't flush and just kind of bolted over the raging rust spots underneath.

I don't plan on cutting corners and will be taking this car apart to chase every bit of rust out and properly building it up from there. It will be a long and slow journey and I thank anyone who takes an interest!

Interior Pt. 3: Trunk Detail

This was the state of Sev's trunk after pulling all of the parts out. Without taking it apart and checking inner pieces this seems to be the worst spot of decay.

Interior 2: Trunk

Interior Pt. 1

This was the state of Sev's cab after pulling all of the parts out. There was a plethora of goodies stacked to the roof in a jumble so it was fun sifting through it contents. The random chunks of house carpet insulation was melted to the floor. Fantastic.
