my last update on the 51 was the top chop (been a while). Since then I've installed a rebuilt engine, transmission and a Merc surround and done a TON of sanding. Today I put it all in a solid coat of primer.
Thanks a ton for the kind responses! I started the project with a PhotoShop request thread and I've tried to stay pretty true to it. Folks around here have helped every step of the way. Can't wait to get it into gloss. Here's the link to the chop and a few of the pics. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=182244&highlight=shoebox
