That DuVall looks killer. It's pinched on the sides which fixes that kinda odd look where the glass flares out. I really like that look. Great car.

That's a Joes Racing steering wheel,the original wheel is from a '27 Chrysler and was just to big for me to be comfortable, apparently the owner originally built the car around the wheel:

Thumbs up Finally she's done...!

Well guys the car is done and back home in my garage and I truly couldn't be more pleased,they did a fantastic job and the final bill (which I haven't even paid yet,lol) came in at the very bottom of the estimate...a full thousand dollars less than I expected...so I am a very happy camper tonight and have already hit the tequila to celebrate!

So without further ado,I present the "Kendall Roadster" in her black tuxedo and Don...I hope you're happy with what we've done with your little roadster:


I really like the tint on the windshield:










What appears to be orange peel around the top of the rear tire in this picture is actually just a reflection of the building:


Now this is what I'm talking about...laser-straight and a mile deep:
