HI Guys just thought id share some pics of my 31 ford sedan ive been working on. I got the car in September 2017 and just sent it out to be painted this weekend. It has a 350 that ran fine when i got it. The body was in good shape except for some minor blemishes. I can't wait to get it back from paint and start putting it back together. 
The interior was complete but i forgot to get a picture of it before i disassembled it.
Thats a custom built fuel tank mounted inside the cab, behind the rear seat.
Engine stripped down, primed, and ready to be painted the same color as the car.
These flush mount door handles really bothered me so they were removed, the holes were filled in and the original handles were put back on. Cousin Mike (sharp) helped with all the body work and getting the original handles working again.
The GM sttering column was removed and a stainless Speedway column went in with a grant metal flake steering wheel. The wooden dashboard was removed and i made a steel dash that will also be painted the color of the body. New gauges with chrome bezels and white faces.
Cousin Mike spent 4th of July in the garage getting the body and parts in primer, and it was a HOT day.
And just this weekend it was FINALLY shipped out to be painted. I can not wait to get it back together and take it for a ride.
