    The pics dont do it justice. Daves Dad taught him well. I wish that I could have him do the whole car.
    What Dave didnt post is the pic after he ground off all that mar-glass. I guess this is why I am leaving it to the professional...
    And thank god I didnt bring the fenders to the shop. I know that Dave would have done canted quads instead and I would be back to muckin the rear quarters myself.

    I know that Dave wants the Suede Loafer or Mud*****er (havent decided on a name yet) out of the shop as he has some plans for the 'Olds'. Wait til you see what he does to that sumbitch. Stay tuned- I am not gonna be the one to spoil the suspense.

    There are some of us old farts who think that quad headlights are best left in the past.

    For now, I am just going to put the nose on and run the '51 top grille peices and lower '50 grille pieces with the park lamps and then a '54 chevy center bar and teeth( need a few more teeth). I want to drive this thing this summer and dont want to get stuck messing with frenching headlights and tail lights and merc grille surround just yet. '50 bumper up front and '50 headlight bezels and '50 tails. Got some nice ,53 or ,54 studebaker caps.
    I want it to be a driving work in progress. As long as I can drive it, I will keep it. I do get impatient you know..

    I need to unload the '50 Ford Tudor that I have so I am not tempted to start that so if you know anyone- have them drop me a line- no rush as it is buried under snow. Very solid body and floor w/ S/10 clip

    Suede Loafer?

    Hushpuppy?

    Any body can restore a car, it takes a REAL MAN to cut one up.

    Oh my- just saw these pics. Unbelievable! I wish that I had pics of when I started on this mess so that you could really see the transformation.

    Dave has done an outstanding job on this thing. Nice work man!

    Will look even better when the nose is on so you can see that the proportions work.

    Thanks Dave!
