    I was looking through my photo album and saw how far the Brookwood has come. It's still far from "finished" but I think it cleaned up pretty well![​IMG]
    Anyone else got any before and after shots ?

    here is another from the Outlaws Rod & Kustom kamp

    the before and afters arent too much different but there is a whole lot left to happen with this one

    the only thing that has really changed is i put in a 59 235, changed up the wheels a lil and done a lil upholstry work here and there

    but plans are in the works for a V8 and automatic trans, bags to lay frame, complete upholstry job and repaint, one piece bumpers, and all new chrome work for the grill and bumpers

    Yup, she's a 1951 Pontiac Chieftain. Picked her up for a few hundred, and has come a long way. Thanks for the compliment.

    Thanks for the compliments guys!...I built this car for my wife to get her involved . She was just saying today how much more fun it is to drive in an old car. She said that nobody waves to her when she's with her friend in her new Honda but when we went out last Saturday night she felt like she was in a parade.
    When I first brought the car home(before pic) she thought that I was sniffing glue. I had to dig through the pictures on the HAMB to show her some of the cool wagons that others have done. Once she saw what it could look like she was all for it. Truth be known , she picked the colors. She has a great eye for color as she is an artist.
