Well the owner was in a hurry so He got it as it sat. Turned out pretty much as I expected but i really wanted to chopp it but his size would not allow it. For those that did not know this was 100% stocker that got the whole treatement to it. This was my first customer full fledge build. Not to bad for doing it part time in a shope behind my house. Who knows may lead to bigger and better things but we will see. I was glad to get to taste the other side of the road with somoene elses money. Heres some pics. The whole family was ready to get it done. Thanks to Slide ( Mike) and another lurker Jacob for helping me out with all the little stuff that it takes to make one like this Rusty
Dang Rusty, you had a busy weekend! That thing looks great I wanna thank you and Danny again---it was cool to visit with y'all Friday. Dave's tickled to death with the 40 coupe---it's better than he expected I told him you Dirty's were rulers! See ya down the road......
One is hi-beam and the other os for lo-beam! I sure hope your customer is pleased with all you put into it. I know there were lotsa places you could have taken the easy way out, but you chose to do it right. I just hope that guy sees that.
That build would have been spot on 40 years ago and it will spot on 50 years from now. When they are done right they never go out of style. Job WELL done. If your not doing a s**** book/photo album on the cars your doing start immediately. It's good for the memories and way effective for future customers to look at. Be sure to highlight any detail that's unusual or unique to you as sometimes it's the "signature" things that will sell a build. Frank
