Mike Staveski of TimeMachines Inc. talked to me about this project a while back and since I haven't worked on a pre-war project in a while I jumped at the opportunity. Mike and James (the owner) had a lot of great ideas as far as subtle body mods and powerplant that will really create an outstanding car. It was great working with them again and I look forward to seeing it finished.

This car is being built in my shop but not for a client. It is my body shop manager's car. His name is James McLeod. We do so much with Mopar Performance, we wanted to show them what a street rod would look like with one of the crate motors in it.
James borrowed the barbed wire from the mopar race car to spilt the blue and silver. Of course, what's a mopar without a shaker hood. It has a mustang II style front end with a quick change rear.
It will be a very nice car when completed. We will post pictures as it goes.
