Awesome project.
How wide are those wheels?!
And how was your experience at Holohans?

I've had them do work for me in the past. It was done in the time agreed upon for within a few dollars of the quoted estimate. Pics and updates were consistently provided along with an explanation of the steps. His shop and Rad Rides are both in Manteno.

This is a super awesome project! Did they get the rails bent from Art Morrison and then buy the front suspension as a kit from somewhere else?

I believe Dan is in North Carolina?

Yes Bob Measured the Rails and drew out exact diagrams of the bends then had art Morrison Make the Rails I had already purchased the IFs from the roadster shop when they were available he did a Fantastic Job it looks amazing. The wheels are 15" wide. Dan Holohan is a Great guy but we all know how Builds go if i said he Over sold and under delivered he would say he overworked and was underpaid we will leave it at that. i will tell you im Extremely impressed and overjoyed with the work being performed at Platinum custom cars they continue to impress like cpd004 stated on time and exactly what they sold you

Super cool! Please keep posting progress pics, this car is going to be one of a kind!!

In these pics We decided that the wheel base was to short for the length of the overhang So Bob extended the wheel base from 117 to 120" and in these pics he sectioned the front fenders for the move forward then brought back the new steel nose cone a tad to even out the proportions.
