    Looking good. I think Chevrolet messed up when they went to the boxtop roof for the hardtops. `61 and `62 Bubbletops are some of my favorite Bowtie products, and I am a ******** Ford guy.

    The engine isn't being built here so I don't know for sure what the specs are. When it gets here I'll try to post up some pics.

    Harold bought a 62 bubbletop to start with, so he did it right, plus he had some 61 stuff sitting around, so he had a frame already

    Is this the same car posted a while back that had the floor completely cut out, along with about 3/4 of the rest of the car? If so, that's really impressive. Actually, it's pretty cool either way.

    The engine and interior arrived today for the project. Talk about a nice looking motor, period correct carbs are a work of art! Dynoed at well over 500 H.P. this is going to be a strong running bubbletop. Enjoy!
