Didn't work for me.

 

currently not available...........

 

street freak anyway...

 

Will be at the mooneyes car show

 

Very Nice!

Since this car is being photographed in a studio, is it slated for a magazine feature?

 

Cover of super chevy

 

well i like it....
i need the key to the backdoor chrome shop too...

 

How do you keep the rear wheelwells from hitting the tires with zero clearance?

 

its called a ROCK hard ride aka steelwheeled wagon....

 

It's hard to see but the wheel wells are rolled out just over the tire

 

Wanted to take a look but not gonna sign up to facebook.

 

Really?
Nice job any way.

 

Looks like there's still very little clearance, even with a small roll on the lip. Must be pretty stiffly sprung.

 

If it doesn't rain I'll hope to see you out there in my patina blue 55'. That sure is a sharp looking car you have!

 

Damm rain. If rains. I won't be driving my car. Not worth the risk. This car is crazy to drive without rain

 

Link to FB still doesn't work.

 

Why would rain [or no] be a problem? I'd worry more about the front axle, lighting holes sure are big!

 

Those tires and quarters are gonna kiss! Do you drive this thing on the street?

Link still doesn't work?

 

It's on my face book. Stevecarpenter or scarpenter@galpin.com. Sorry by buddy did the video.

 

nice 55 ....looks great ...

 

what 7/8 or 3/4 s ... what are you seeing ?

 

Look pretty normal to me? Is it possible you're not seeing them correctly? At first the chrome made them look like big oval cutouts in the I beam, but they're well spaced holes that I've done similarly many times.

 

More street freak if you ask me, congrats on spending your money to have it built though.

 

Yep, just handed over a bunch of money and showed up to pick up my car.

 

My bad..Did look like slots to me, had to use a glass' to pick em' out..I did notice the little rear lip work...........
