<\/a><\/dt>\n- 1936 Packard Running Boards Removed<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n
Today we removed the running boards.\u00a0 It was pretty easy as they must have been removed previously.\u00a0 Just a few coarse thread bolts holding them on.\u00a0 Amazingly very little rust and all of the joint holes are intact.\u00a0 Might do a little reinforcing when we put them back in but other than that fantastic shape.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
If you look close near the hinges on the door and where the door ends are the standards that support the running boards.\u00a0 These things are SOLID and tight on the frame.\u00a0 Unless we have to do some reinforcing to the frame these are going to stay in place.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/a><\/dt>\n- 1936 Packard Rear Fender<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n
Next we removed the rear fenders.\u00a0 Again the body and fenders are in great shape.\u00a0 There are remnants of the cloth used between the body and fender here but mostly deteriorated to dust.\u00a0 Most likely going to use rubber when we put it back together.\u00a0 Look at that wheel well…not even a pinhole of rust through.\u00a0\u00a0 Looking forward to getting this girl cleaned up and ready for some body work!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n\u00a0<\/div>\nIn addition, we\u00a0took out the plywood structure for the seat and the kick plates on the frame as you go into the doors.\u00a0 My camera battery died, so I will get a couple pictures of that before we start up next time.<\/div>\n\u00a0<\/div>\nBob from\u00a0HIRE A GUY\u00a0came by today as well to give us an opinion fixing some of the interior framing.\u00a0 He seems to think we are in really good shape there too.\u00a0 Some modification but all in all not difficult to finish up.\u00a0 He will be back once we get the car cleaned out and ready for body work.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"1936 Packard Running Boards Removed Today we removed the running boards.\u00a0 It was pretty easy as they must have been removed previously.\u00a0 Just a few coarse thread bolts holding them on.\u00a0 Amazingly very little rust and all of the … Continue reading
