Customs Oil Farm Thunderbird Debut at the GNRS

Well Two roofs and a few missed deadlines later, we finally finished the Thunderbird. The last few weeks before the show have been crazy, but it was worth the lack of sleep. This was my first time at the GNRS in Pomona, and it was great. Besides all the bitchin cars to see, there were lots friends to visit with. Just a great weekend. Here are some shots of the bird. Sorry for the poor quality of the pictures. Kevin

Wow! Very nice Bird.

 

That looked amazing in person - loved it sitting on the Thunderbird wires!

 

The bird looked great at the show. Makes me want to build one next.

 

Thanks everyone for the kind words. A lot of sacrifices with family and friends were made to finish this car. I'm glad that people are enjoying it.

Sweet cigar people. Love those clean teeth. Paint colour is dignified sporty- best one so far.
Could you display car with nice big photo of engine bay next time. Those lines are too sweet to hiccup with an open hood.
Thanks- glad I checked this baby out.

 

When you guys are in town for the Autorama you should stop by the shop. Scott

 

Holy crap that car is gorgeous!!!!!!!​

It looks like the work and sleep deprivation was worth it. You should be proud.​

 

Spoggie,
It's always a hard call when showing. I to love the lines of the car with everything shut, but I'm also trying to show my abilities as a builder. This car, like my 51 victoria, are cars that I am using to get work. There are hundreds of hours of work in the engine bay that would seem a waste if I kept it closed. So for now the car is open at the indoor shows, then we will close it up and drive. I'll try and post another set of pics with everything closed next week.
Kevin

 

Scott,
I would love to stop by and check your shop and projects. You can plan on it.
Kevin
