    I like that it has some rake even with fender skirts! I'm not a big fan of tail dragger shoe boxes.
    Nice looking car!

    Your car looks great; though not usually a fan of scallops, those just "work" on it.

    I've come up with a couple of sets of original Ford backup light over the years. I couldn't decide whether to use them or not, but now I know.

    That turned out real nice. Have you got a yellow pinstripe around the scallops? That's what we call a Single Spinner here in Australia. I would have been real antsy driving over that concrete edging but I realise how scarce real estate is in the UK.
