2 Thumbs up Lee. You have done a super job on taking a sow's ear & turning it into a silk purse. Congratulations on adding a new member to the LG Speed Family. My best to you & Shannon. Take care, Rick
Looks fantastic , nice combo of clean but still very original looking . Can't wait to see the body back on. Watching your progress on this build is probably my fav build currently on on RUclips .
Thanks! The frame rails Shannon lifted were very light. Not sure if you noticed, but in one point in the video it was balancing on an office stool haha
Good progress there! What i would do if it was my car? Well, i would open the can of worms from the bottom. Fix the floors, subrails etc, before putting the body back on the frame. That way i would not have to get the body off the frame, when opening rest of the can of worms. Keep it up!
We watching and are enjoying your builds and outings from Australia, also love Doris. Love your build plan and at 60 were doing the same get the 54 Humber rat rod roadworthy and drive and do improvements to it during our 6 cooler months.
@@LGKustoms mines been all mocked up,motor trans is in,metal work finished, but theres still.a shit tonne of work to do. Hopefully this summer it sees some miles but who knows. Summers busy here.
I love your view on this project … being able to drive it as you build it. It’s so true that we get a vision of a build and it can take years to get there. If we build them in stages we can enjoy driving them as we build them. 👍🏻
Looks great. I agree with not tearing into the body just make it a driver then take it back apart in the winter and do the body. Then you can make it really nice for the family with a cool interior. Going to be a wicked little hot rod. I thought I’d get the T done in one winter not 4 lol
Building the chassis is the most gratifying part of a build. I totally agree with you. Get it safely running and finish it as you go. There's so many project cars in piles because someone lost interest. Enjoying watching your death trap sedan become something to be proud of.
Good morning Lee and Shannon , that sure looks great to me . Things are coming back together and the days keep getting longer . Have fun folks and have a great week !
Looks excellent! I’m still gathering parts for my 32 coupe. I need the tranny. Crossmember I’m running a flathead v8 like you suggested just need that crossmember
Hey Lee, as a work in progress car, instead of a black primer, give thought to using a satin paint, Blue, Black, Red, or ???? it looks cool, and you can work on the car, and touch it up anytime, just a suggestion. Have a great weekend. Skooter....:-)
I like the idea of a satin paint too. But satin paint is just regular paint with satin clear, and the prep work is the same as shiny paint. So might as well spray shiny paint at that point.

My machine is a Singer 111G156. I don’t think I’d worry to much about finding my exact machine. Industrial machines are all very similar. You want a walking foot, and reverse so you can do a lock stitch, which are both very common features.
@@LGKustoms Thank You for getting back --I think what I really need to know --- when you did the Roll n Pleats --with the foam -- the material -all stacked up -- not all machines have the same clearance under the foot --- with all that stacked up -- does the foot compress it --- to go through -- under the foot -- some machines only have 5/16 ---- 3/8" clearance --- How much room do you have under the foot to get all that matl. and foam through ---- this is what I'm worried about -- getting a machine that doesn't have enough clearance ---- did your machine compress all to feed under the foot? Sorry about asking --- I would like to do Roll n Pleat also --- just don't want to get something that won't do the job --- Thank You Again ---- Rodney
Not sure on how to get in touch with you --- so --- Your sewing machine has --- 1/2" lift ---- so it is compressing the foam down to get through the foot ------ so my question there is answered ---- one last thing though -- you sew so smoothly --- do you have a Servo motor verses the Clutch Motor --- I'm hearing you can sew slow with the clutch one without zinging along --- too fast for me --- just wondered if you converted to the Servo or using the Clutch motor WITH A GENTLE TOUCH ----- I think that is all I need to know before I begin my search for one ---- I watched you doing the seat for Shane --- it turned out REALLY NICE -- and I took quite a few notes on how you went about doing it ------ Thanks Again ----- Rodney
@@LGKustoms You seem to sew so smoothly -- thought maybe you opted for the servo -verses the clutch motor ------ I still want to do this --- my Model A is almost a mustard color vinyl -- no rips - no pleats or anything --just plain -- so -- my search is on -- have a few different brands and models that should do the job in mind -- the price will be the factor -- as long as it can do the job -- is all I need ----- Thank You answering my questions --- it has helped me in figuring out what I need ---- You have a good philosophy too ------------ Rodney
Ok so if that was my car I would give it to you. But it’s your car so you can keep it. I think it’s name should be LG “baby”. I think it’s looking really good the body just paint it black till next winter. I’m sure you could do the interior and put it away for final assembly. Then just put a couple of seats in so you can have road trips and work out any issues. Anyway what ever you do it’s going to be good. Tim.
2 Thumbs up Lee. You have done a super job on taking a sow's ear & turning it into a silk purse.

Thanks so much Rick!
Looks great. Best part for you would be the fact that it’s not a bunch of big pieces laying around, now one mobile chassis 👍
Yup! Takes up less space, and easier to move around!
That looks killer! The 2 door sedans are my favourite early hot rods. Personally, I love fenderless, chopped and channelled.
Looks fantastic , nice combo of clean but still very original looking . Can't wait to see the body back on.
Watching your progress on this build is probably my fav build currently on on RUclips .
Thanks so much! I really appreciate that
liking that frame..will be a relief to have a good chassis under you, pretty sketchy when your first got it!
Thanks! What’s amazing, it’s all the same parts. Just taken apart, refined a little bit, and put back together.
That is a sure difference from when you got it wow. Very cool Lee 👍👍🛠️🇨🇦🛠️🇨🇦
Thanks Badge
I'm liking it! It's going to be a sweet 32! Don't be having Shannon picking up heavy stuff, like you're frame!
Thanks for sharing, always interesting!
Thanks! The frame rails Shannon lifted were very light. Not sure if you noticed, but in one point in the video it was balancing on an office stool haha
Little sedan is really looking Kool!!! It’s going to be a really neat little hotrod!!!😎👍
Thanks Steve
This is a very easy channel to watch. Thanks
Appreciate that! Thanks for watching

Good work Lee, looking good as it comes together . Looking foreward to the next one!
Thanks! Working on the next video right now!
Looking awesome!
Thank you! Cheers!
I love the car
Thank you
Great day for sure. It’s looking killer!
Thanks

Love this build, its badd ass! really enjoy your content!
Thanks!
Make it Kustom sent me over. Great video! Looking forward to following along on the build.
Thanks for coming!
I'm at the same stage with my deuce. Feels good to know I'm not alone.
Race ya to the finish! Haha
@@LGKustoms mines been all mocked up,motor trans is in,metal work finished, but theres still.a shit tonne of work to do. Hopefully this summer it sees some miles but who knows. Summers busy here.
The frame turned out great
Thank you
good work Lee. also i got my T shirts in the post , thank you!
Awesome thank you! Appreciate the support!
Cool Lee, that was a ton of work for a day!
Thanks Glenn. It helped that I’ve had it together already before paint.
@@LGKustoms mockup and fitment, trail and tribulation - all come together eventually.
The only thing I can see as a problem is that it isn't mine! This is looking sweeeeet!
Haha thanks!
Looking sweet brother!

They always take longer than expected!
@@LGKustoms that T coupe was supposed to be a “stick another flatty in it and go” job …it was not😂
A day like that in the shop makes one feel great. Keep it up.
I'm so excited too!
Great build

They pop up every now and then on the HAMB or @partsswapper on instagram.
Well it is April now and its still freezing!! but the chassis looking great.
Thanks!
Going in the right direction!! This is gonna be a killer 32!
Thank you!

17:27 Everything else is painted, don't forget the fan. Lol
The fan is just held there with a couple bolts. Not entirely sure I’m gonna use it or not. I’ll go over that in an upcoming video

I have a clutch motor on mine. A servo motor is a nice upgrade, but I like the philosophy “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”

The interior would be easy enough to remove when the time comes too!
Well I think that would be a job finished so when you tackle the body you will have a head start on getting it back on the road.
Hello, great channel, great video series. Hey, any reason (function wise) the stick shift has to be so long? Thanks.
Thanks! As for the shifter, it’s just a stock ford truck shifter. I may cut it down, depends how it feels once the seats are in.
Whats the color on the motor ? Thanks
Duplicolor retro red
Too low? That doesn't sound like Lee Grant talk.
The tires were rubbing the fenders man!
