After receiving lots of stainless steel pipes & pieces, Derek starts laying out the exhaust system on the 1933 5 window coupe project. Mean while in the other garage he pulls out long stored boxes to see what was put away for the Camera Lady's roadster and starts making a list of what to buy.

With the chassis now complete, Derek and The Camera Lady put the body on the frame, install the steering column, steering wheel and the '39 tail lights. The 1933 chassis needs the front springs tweaked so it sits lower, so Derek gets right to it.

This week Derek is still mocking up the engine for the 1933 Coupe by modifying the engine mounts and fabricating and installing the transmission mounts all keeping the correct angle so the driveshaft will work. The webbing is installed on the Camera Lady's 32 roadster frame; one more part to install then the body goes on! Come back next week and see if that happens.

Painting a car is tricky, even more so in a homemade paint booth. A BIG thank you to Jesse Johnson for a fabulous paint job on The Camera Lady's 1932 roadster body. It looks great. We're so glad it's finally done.
Derek also works on the 1933 Coupe project by fabricating the engine mounts.
