What's going on everyone! I just joined this forum because I just bought my first(real) project car at age 32!

I am a welder/fabricator and just started working at a Custom Classics fab shop in October, so I am new to car fab. Prior experience is pipe welding, gasifiers/furnaces, etc.

Anyways, on to the car! It's a 1940 Olds Coupe 2 door, and is incomplete without a frame, fenders, front end, etc. The body is strait, and has a lot of the chrome pieces. I'll be posting pics when I get it to the shop which should be about Friday.

I look forward to learning a lot in this project through my co-workers and hopefully this forum!

 

Welcome to the site... If you have questions, most likely some one here may have the answer... Good luck with the project...

 

Welcome to the site, looking forward to some pics.

 

What model is it?

 

At the moment, I do not know. Once I get a picture up maybe you can help with that haha

 

You need to go over the VIN or data plate to find out.

 

For sure. That was option #2

 

Welcome.

 

Thanks!

 

Welcome aboard. When you have time drop on to the vintage site there is a ongoing thread there labeled 46 47 48 how many have them and introduce yourself. Sharp bunch of guys hang out there and they are up to speed with the fat fender Oldsmobile's.... Tedd

 

I'll have to go check them out! Thanks a lot for the heads up!

 

Welcome aboard! It will be fun to watch your progress.

Is your avatar Roland of Gilead?

 

Thanks man! And yes! That would be Roland of Gilead! And I like to think that's Zoltan to the left hahaha

 

Well... That's starting from scratch!

It should be an interesting project. I can't wait to see pictures of it during the build.

 

The foundation is there, so it's a good start. I'll get a build thread going in the very near future so my progress can be seen by all. I'm really excited about this and I have a lot of ideas!

 

Welcome. Can't wait to see the pictures as it comes together!

 

Thanks!
