    Rim's and tires, wrong..not too crazy about the tripple exit lake pipes so to me those are wrong too :D..and the thing that probably look's out of place is the addition of the front part of a hood where the one on the car is supposed to be...when it's closed..
    Which remind's me, the hood, trunk and door should be shut..tough to see the line's of a car when everything's open..
    I've never been crazy about these chopped, only because i really like the stock roof line, but this one does look to have a nice flow to it..Overall i dig the car..Change the thing's i mentioned and id drive the hell out of it.
    There's my worthless 2 cents :):):)

    I've seen guy's do that with spare hood's before. They have to show off the mill, but want the front end to look 'complete' too..grill bar etc..
    Not a fan of it at all. i'd rather just see the hood open if it's that important to see what's under it..but prefer closed on a custom if given the choice...
    Still has a pretty cool look to it though..
     
  4. Here's one I saw this weekend, obviously a Santini job...

    The Graffiti Impala saved me from a life of Mustangs! LOL

    This is a sketch I did a while back... heavily influenced by "Bolander's 58". If I ever gather the coin to build one of these, it will look very much like this.

    Ok, how does a guy in Co get a pick from a car show in new jersey two months ago? LOL And no, it wasn't very close to the real car, contrary to what the people running the show said.

    From what i know they are an old aftermarket accessory item...I could be wrong but I've only seen them on one other car besides this one then a few months back i purchased a '58 Chevy Sedan Delivery that has them on it. I dont care for them myself so if your interested in them...Let me know..
