Lookin' sweet Greg. I'm liking the mods you've had done. I will say, I like those steele rims on there.

Don't like 'em too much -- they're just the rollers....

The "right" wheels have been ordered from Schott.... They're Velocitys done "my way".

:thumbsup:

Nice little Hot Rod you're building there Greg !
Its got the "right" stuff without being "overdone".

THANKS!

I'm trying to "reel it in" a bit -- and get a little tradition in there - without ruining the whole car. With it being slicked - it's harder to try to bring back the
car AND try to keep the clean feel it has.

I think you'll like (I hope, I should say) some of the touches we just settled on.

We're putting a little "art deco" touches on it. And for some on here -- I'm finally re-doing the windshield.

Cool, those Velocity wheels will look sweet. They have that classic Halibrand style. :thumbsup:

Tracy! You're going to really love what we just added... Re-doing the console shape to get the deco treatment.... And the windshield will get custom cast stainless deco end caps (and new shape. 'cause the shape sucks now).

Stay tuned! She's going to dress up just fine!

The console was looking a bit contemporary ------ so we picked up the lines off the headlights and the antique heater.... and they're in the process of remaking it.

This is how it was when I left... with more work and a couple of "trick" ideas yet to come.

With the car on the ground.... where it hasn't been for awhile. We needed to get 'er down so we could settle on the headlight spreader bar. It will get some "shape" to pick up the shape of the grill -- rather than just be a straight bar. We'll also black out the radiator and the cross bars in the grill... etc so that you'll focus on the grill shell shape and not all the crap going on behind it.

Also doing these nice little headlights with LED turn signals/running lights. You don't get that yellow bulb 'effect' in these that you do in some of the cruder versions.

With the signal OFF.... not a hint of yellow!

Twin cup holders! :wow:

There is no end to your wallet! :D

Good choice of wheels, looking forward to seeing them "my way." :thumbsup:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^ :lol:


If I had your money.... I'd burn mine!
