More later!!

  16. HA HA HA!!! Love the close-up of your welds!!! You lay them down real nice!!!
    The taillights look great,especially where you mounted them. If they were in the middle,like everybody else does them,I don't think it would have looked as good...You sure are learning as you go! Doing a fantastic job!!! Your metal work is better than some of the stuff i've seen in many shops. Can't wait to see it on the road...

    Thanx BadBob!! I agree with the tail lights homie!! Im hoping by the end of summer my car will be on the road in primer , then off to Reno to my father in law's shop. He's upholstering the car for out wedding present. Im pretty stoked. He had a bunch of cars at the GNRS the he has done through the years including the OUTLAW and some AMBR winners. Can't wait, he's gonna be doing a real traditional 50's interior, nothing too crazy, but clean and simple!!
    LOL!! Pomona for sure homie!!
