Telecaster master, huh? Always dug that high lonesome sound. Been a Setzer fan since 1979, though he likes the hollow body.
Oh, and speaking of hollow bodies, your car project looks built for speed! Here's to hoping nobody gonna call that hot rod tame! |

Hi, Jay, I look forward to follow along, on this build. I get the feeling something really unique is heading our way. Love the hand fab parts, love to learn from the guys with these skills. What kind of flaring tool did you use on the trans access cover. Please keep posting. Cheers Tom

Those look like dimple die parts.
We use them on our foot and pedal boards. Cool project.

Tom- I used a tool called a dimple die. It's super easy to use. I have to keep myself from using it on everything! http://www.summitracing.com/parts/mbt-1310-310?seid=srese1&gclid=CJvtkJLV08YCFc-CfgodQeYBVQ

They make dimple and cutting dies that work real well for short money.

I've done a bunch of mechanical thingies to my car to get it on the road..but those pictures are so BORING...here's some fun pics
I put a bunch of stickers on (each one ads 10hp..it's science) and a KILLER grill badge/donut by Joshy Robots  This guy I know was changing up his 79, so I got a hand me down front bumper/valance for my 78...  Should have it all mounted up shortly...
