1937 Plymouth

This blog is a record of how I built my 1937 Plymouth two door sedan into a prize winning restomod. Restomod (restoration + modern technology) uses the advancements in automotive technology to enhance the performance, comfort and safety of a classic car. Follow along as I post photos and information over the next several weeks about how I modified and fabricated various components to bring this awesome project together. I will also share several upgrades I performed after the car was completed.

While frame was out for sandblast I cleaned all of the old undercoat from the body


 I used this Roto-Strip tool on my drill to remove the old undercoat, it worked excellent and made short work of the job.

 I applied a coat of Por-15 for a hard glassy smooth protective base coat.
 The entire bottom of the body was rust free...Nice!
