The missing link in the 37 Buick steering arrived. Wizard fabrications 12.0" polished Steer Clear. This connects the AME chassis mounted linkage to the cabin steering column. The double U-joint will accommodate the motion between the chassis and body. We will fabricate a mount for the Steer Clear then incorporate that into the firewall. This will create the connection for the fabricated steering column. There is still a ways to go but the plan is coming together.

The 37 Buick left fender was stripped and metal prepped. The usual perimeter corrosion and fatigue cracks appeared. The front end of the fender was covered in small holes that may have been caused by standing water left inside the fender at some time. The front section was replaced with a new fabricated piece created with the power hammers (one set up for shrinking and the other for planishing). Once the fit was confirmed the corroded section was removed and the new section was TIG welded and dressed. The bumper iron openings were also eliminated at this time. As was done on the right fender a large amount of the fenders perimeter was replaced.

Our 37 Buick project front fenders were a challenge trying to create a matching pair. We had the originals and two more pairs. There weren't two that matched, fit or didn't have significant damage. It was decided to create a matching pair from what we had. On the right side we started with one fender and cut up a second to combine them into one correct piece. The first right fender was over an inch shorter at the cowl relative to the door opening compared to the left fender. This visible difference would be compounded with the addition of the running board. The front end suffered from a very bad old repair that was hidden in filler at some point. It was cut off and the front of the sacrificial was grafted on. A lot of the lower fl**ge and wheel opening we recreated and grafted in to replace corrosion and fatigue damage. Everything was correctly located with the wedge clamp, TIG welded and metal finished.

Finishing the second stage of the outer rocker. With the first fl**ge tipped the profile is corrected with the shrinker/stretcher to match the pattern. The second fl**ge is tipped and the correction process is repeated. At the narrow end of the profile the Pullmax is used to define the shape. The final image shows the progressing improvement of the outer rocker box.

Second stage fabricating the outer rocker is matching the inner door profile. The stock profile doesn't match. There are areas where the door seal has no compression. We used small sections of the new door seal gasket to establish 50% compression with a new profile.

Door sill register. With the addition of sound barrier, underlay and carpet the factory register is not sufficient to secure the sill plate. We are creating new outer boxes , this gives us the opportunity to correct the height. The profile required a four stage process on the Pullmax. The result is a register that is nearly twice as tall as stock

Custom exhaust tailpipes part four. Left and right sections are all tacked together producing complete assemblies. The next step will be to purge weld the pipes. Comparing the assemblies side by side shows how close they are to mirror images

Custom tailpipes part three. Cut all the pieces for the left tailpipe from stainless steel. Selectively tacked the pieces together as sub-assemblies. Sub-assemblies are then located in the chassis with the Wedge Clamp using the right side tailpipe as a reference. Left and right pipes travel through the chassis symmetrical to the centerline.

Custom exhaust tailpipes part two. The mild steel model is complete and provides the section sizes, quantities, and clocking information. Everything is cut from 2.50" diameter stainless steel tube. The wedge clamp is used with the model reference to assemble the stainless steel mirror image. During this work success is largely due to the quality of the part preparation.

Custom exhaust tailpipes. Fabricating mirror image tailpipes in an Art Morrison chassis. The final product(s) will be made from stainless steel and purge welded. This model was made from mild steel, coated with Dykem, centerline scribed and marked for clocking reference. Mandrel bends don't come in the necessary radii and the mandrel forming process makes accurate clocking alignment not practical. The pie cut sections are cut from straight tube to the dimensions required for each turn. The information gathered from this model was used to accurately cut the parts for the final stainless steel tube assembly. Cardboard tubes were made to simulate the shock coils. Foam blocks were cut and fit to hold the tube in place. The differential was located in the full compression position to simulate minimum clearance requirements.
