    Hi all,
    After years of excuses, I finally gave in and bought a project car. I picked up a 54 Vicky that runs & rolls, but needs a lot of little things. I'll be perusing this group a lot and picking your brains for tips, tricks, and nuances. Will be posting pics soon!

    Here she is in the garage after delivery. I've got her on jackstands right now, hoping to finish up the brakes and dual pot MC conversion this weekend. More to come after I give her a good bath!

    Hello from Indy

    I'm rather partial to that body style myself. Good luck with the build
