    Looking lovely!
    Congrats on the progress.
    This car has had such a wonderful transformation in my opinion.

    I haven’t looked for awhile probably since the body was in primer,
    I liked what I saw then and I like it even more now.
    WOW I’m a 51 De Soto fan and I didn’t even know! Very cool ride…

    I’ve been thinking about this today, I’m not normally a custom fan but I really like yours. Then it came to me, even though it’s a new build it looks like a restoration…:)

    wow very late to this reply, but thank you. my goal was to make it appear as if this was what could have been if the DeSoto's got a bit more styling love from the factory. calling it a restoration is high praise!
