Time for another update! We have been making a lot of progress on several cars recently. I'll be starting a few threads on the PT style cars later today. In the mean time, here is a look at a few of the other things that we have been up to.

57 Chevy Convertible is coming together. We are waiting on a lot of parts to be chromed and stainless parts to be polished, but have been making some good headway on the wiring, plumbing, and panel assembly. I took a lot of good shots of the chassis before the body was mounted.

A few other things we have going on.

Getting our beater C10 ready for paint. I found these pics while organizing files that were pretty cool. A little bit of a change in altitude from the original frame. Take a look at the tube fence behind the truck in relation to the hood.

We got the chassis back from powder coating and have that assembled.

We definitely need more pics of that C-10. I should have bought a long bed and cut it down like you did. Good Job.:thumbsup:

Thanks guys. I'll get a few more pics up a little later on on that C10 and a few other projects.

DJW - The long bed was definitely the way to go. We picked up the truck for around $1,200 running/driving and 100% solid rust and free out of AZ. (A comparable short bed is $10,000 - $15,000) We are a dealer for the new short bed assemblies that retail for around $3,500. Our chassis is the last piece in the puzzle to easily convert a long bed into a pro-touring short bed.
