What Has Been Done This Week...

Royce got a lot done this week! He filled in the instrument panel, louvered the dash, filled in the heater air intake, replaced cab corners, stripped the rear fenders, and replaced bottom front of rear fender. He has on order four link bars and one piece window felts, hoping they will show up this week.

WHAT IS DONE SO FAR.....

Where to start?? Royce has been working on his dad's 1955 Ford Restoration for over a week now. The progress he is making is awesome! Royce and his dad have been working on this restoration for years and here is what they have accomplished so far.

First it was chopped many, many years ago by Rod’s father, Wayne. The back of the cab was canted forward and it has a full size rear back window.


The bed is 100% handcrafted by Rod and Royce. It has a diamond plate floor, and a tonneau cover in working progress.




The fenders have frenched in Cadillac bullet tail lights.



This is with the tail-lights filled in.


8.8 Rear-end cut off and removed lower links and shock mounts.


1989 5.0L mass air flow rebuilt motor, firewall holes filled.


Not sure what this is called but Royce did this today.



Replaced cab corners.



Inside stripped and dash smoothed.
