    I like the drip rail going back on. The roof is taking shape nicely. Also I admire your fine work.

    I am trying to picture it with the glass in. Maybe on your next video we can see a picture of how it’s going to look finished 👌👌👌🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

    Bust out the air hose for cooling down your welds like Chad does so you don't warp that roof. You're doing good man, I like it! My advice is let the haters be your motivators. 👍😉✌

      Let’s just say if it fails.. and it falls apart in my garage before i finish. Then I will have failed and I will be wrong. Is it fair to say if when I’m done and inspected and determined to be safe for the road.. does that make you wrong or just difference of opinion?

    Very impressed how you did the roof. :)

    • @myclassicfords3658
      @myclassicfords3658  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks! I’m thinking of adding a tube across the roof at that point, because the roof sheet is still very flexible and I’m thinking if I roll the tube I can make the roof fit better and match both sides.

    I like the the way you curved the roof in the back. Gonna look good.
    Still afraid the roof is to tall,but i hope i am wrong. You are werry talented in what you do.

    • @myclassicfords3658
      @myclassicfords3658  2 ปีที่แล้ว

    It reminds me of the Dodge Arrow which was similar to B210 Datsun. The bolt pattern on the Jaguar for the wheels are 4 3/4 like Chevy (just a note) Looking good man!!! It’s maybe possible to use the trunks outer layer of metal to help shape the the roof and beyond.

  • @jagharingenyoutube
    @jagharingenyoutube 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I am almost thinking you should have made the roof drop down a couple of inches further forward, as in making the front straight piece of the bended bar shorter

    • @myclassicfords3658
      @myclassicfords3658  2 ปีที่แล้ว
