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.
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.

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.
