    I've actually already had this set up in another car, it clears by roughly 1/4"

    It's a vacuum operated unit.

  3. The amount of work you get done in a short piece of time is incredible. In a couple months it will be the 32 everyone wants!

    'Twas a bit nippy in the Flaven hideout today but I still didn't want to leave. I got many ideas from Pete and his project. Great build. Well thought out and quality workmanship. Hope to line up next to it on the beach

    Oh stop it....the Bangladesh dream shop is a small, hidden underground establishment well known for its bad attitude and unwillingness to conform to anything normal. Carry on.

    Pete maybe I'm a little more immature or less hot rod experienced, but did you sit in it yet?

    That really looks nice, quarter window shape is perfect, that is what makes a chop IMO. Match the rear tire to the fender well, slam the front end and you are done. Bob

    I'm getting ready to paint the rims than mount the tires.
    Rears are 750-16 and the fronts are 600-16

    Rims will be black with red pinstripes.

    Maybe you answered already - do you plan to run a hood w/sides or hood only? You are tenacious sir. Excellent work
