    Some of you guys expressed interest in seeing updates on the coupes progress..... to recap, a few weeks ago I posted shots of my friend Rudys lakes styled '34 coupe, I linked it below.

    It now belongs to Billy Gibbons and will be finished as a collaborative effort by So-Cal Speed Shop Pomona, Rudy, and Billy. All three parties are super excited about what will become Billy's new coupe.

    Here is a link to what it looks like now, you can see more of Rudy's projects as well... (a guy can definitely learn about proportions looking at his work).

    Stand by to see the finished results... it will be cool!


    for those that missed it, here is my previous thread...

    Just curious...How did Billy Gibbons end up with it? Was it For Sale,or do you guys have friends in common? How did he find out about it?
    I can just imagine what it will look like when finished!

    It was listed for sale on the website for a while and I tried to short sale my house to get it. Guess thats the end of that dream.

    I'd like to see it next to the Eliminator some day.
     
  21. Looking forward to the end result!

    I see that coupe about once a month when I stop in. Just curious to know why So Cal is involved or why they even need to be involved??? Rudy has so much talent as it is and he usually has the Kennedy Bros. help him with projects.
