Tom Otis - 1935 Chevrolet Standard 2-Dr Sedan

Augusta, KS

Here's a few shots of the Project so far.....................

Interesting turn of events.......   Tom Otis has purchased this car a few years ago for a project, but had to sell it before getting started.  Well, Glenn, who already had a 35 Chevy sedan (converted to a Delivery) stepped up and bought it from Tom.

Here are a few of the pictures while it was being built.

Glenn removed the body and started on the chassis first.  He installed a Mustang II IFS with disc brakes, along with a Chevy 10Bolt rear end.

Once the chassis was complete, Glenn had to fabricate a new foundation of wood and square tubing to mount the body to the frame correctly.  Once the body was bolted down, Glenn adjusted the doors so they would open and close correctly.  He then fabricated a floor. With help from other club members, Glenn filled the top with a section cut out of a Chevrolet Van. His Grandson Garrett helped Glenn to the body work on the lower rear panel. Jon Mayo helped Glenn get the body work finished so he could put the car in primer.
