haha well i def agree about them not being low enough, everyone up here seems to be anti airbags haha, and that 40 needs them for sure, as it sits now you couldnt turn that car around in a football field.

little update here... made a cardboard model of the console, the owner wanted it to be flat and level where the shifter mounts so a little change in the design... i also cut the front brace out of the hood and made it bolt in so we can get the paint slick and be able to buff underneith it... enjoy...

LOOKING VERY NICE MAN im loving the work.......

damn!

Thanks for putting up the pics. Its refreshing seeing nice metalwork. The next ride I build will be an older streetrod too.

thanks everyone... its coming along slowly.... a bit of an update... i still gotta run the console part through the plannishing hammer and smooth it up a bit but here it is roughed in...



E-brake

Bottom supports for console.

back to the console...

dam thats badass.

man keep the pics coming its awesome seeing nice work.....

more pics please

alright guys, i havent been able to update or get online in a couple of days, so here is how it stands after wensday....i got in a bit of a hurry and mounted the E brake a little to fast, end up i gotta cut it back out and move it over about 3/8" of an inch so that way the console part will be dead centered in the car... it sucks but oh well thats what happens when u get in a hurry to see what it looks like i guess lol... anyway enjoy...

making the part to go around the handle. i got the curve in it, shrank the crap out of the side of it and plannished it some to get the "swoop" in it...

the pan for the back area, its a cover for a storage section, once its all said and done itll be hinged with gas struts on it so he can un-latch it and itll raise up on its on..



and cutting out the area for the cup holder and the billet plate thats going to go in the big hole(i dont know why, just something the owner wanted??)ohhh, and i made the area a bit bigger around the brake handle b/c the guy wanted to be able to wrap his fingers all the way around it and he also wants the handle wraped in leather so i had to add some room for that...
