    I remember seeing Jerry's car at Paso every year. Exceptional stock-bodied 3W.

    Awesome build. I understand those spot lights are part of that era but wonder if they arent breaking up the beautiful lines of this build?

    Edit: Apologies you've covered that in previous replies :)

  13. Very nice. I have a Firestone heater like yours. They,re quite big compared to other heaters so no problems warming up the coupe interior. Might have to drive with a window open :cool: :D

    It's like a work of art. Sultry and sexy lines with lucious curves. Oh man.

    Really, really nice! It's my favorite type of custom work that takes beautiful factory lines and elevates everything with graceful, flowing bodywork. If you haven't already done it, you should get in touch with RIK at CCC.

    Rik knows of this build. Voodoo Larry and I both invisioned the car as to something Harry Westergard would have built in the mid 40's.
