Projects 1951 Chevy Build

looking at the first couple of pictures, you didnt happen to buy this car out of oklahoma did you?

 

Another great home build. Looks killer, you must be happy with that. Rims look really nice, simple but classy. Mind you i would say that as i have pretty much the same combo. Your hard work has been worth it for sure.

 

Car came out of Texas

 

the center caps are Wheel Vintiques ... Ordered came from Summit Racing

 

Well, got the ol' girl dropped off yesterday for the interior. I drove her several miles to get the bugs out. My speedo is about 25 toooo slow, thanks to one of Tennessee's finest. I'll have to make some speedo gear changes when she gets back home. I have no idea what is in it ... but for sure it is off! The nice police officer let me go with a warning and wanted me to take a picture of him next to it with his phone. So I did ... may have saved me a couple bucks there ... still was a great day! We here in the H.A.M.B. world knows what it is like to drive a piece of American History! O what a feeling it is! Now I have a little time to get the AD moved around in the shop. Start a need list. Thanks for all the comments and interest in the car. I have enjoyed it and will post some pics as soon as I get her back.
Thanks Again,
Gadget
