So THESE ARE NOT THE WHEELS that will be on the car -- these are just rollers --- but the hood and hood sides are done.... so now off to paint!



Those wheels make it look like a girlie car!! UGH!! LOL

Yeah but it does have that old school look to it by the way it looks so great the way it is seems a shame to cover up all the metal with paint.

Thanks Rick!


Personally -- there's nothing worse than wide whites.... HAHAHAHA OMG I can't stand them! I almost didn't post up the pics because the car went from "traditional with attitude" to "traditional with absolutely nothing going for it"!!


I'm still blown away by how nice the body was as shipped from the factory.

My buddy Pierre was going to build one of these -- and in fact I'd called Phil at The Roadster Shop to inquire about setting the body on a chassis for him.... then he found and bought the '57 from Ironworks.... and then he saw my body as delivered and started having second thoughts! It won't take much work to get some paint on it.

The hood and sides are all custom of course -- because the position of the grill is different -- it's pinched -- and sectioned.

Hello......................... Greg,








Those phat whites on yer lil '33 do give widewhiteys a bad name.

In the spirit of fairness and balance, here is some rightwhite Radattitude.
