New From Vegas

I picked up a 54 from a stand up guy out here in Vegas a few months back and I am finally on the move to finish the car. The majority of the bodywork is done next is the bag work then.....

here is a before picture as it sat when I got it (yellow)

Then the car now in primer.


Great to be here!

 

Welcome from NC. Looks good, what color you gonna paint her. Scott

 

Good question- I can't make up my mind on what to do.....

 

welcome from ga

 

Thanks Fellas!

 

i'd recognize that gold tooth anywhere. you did good by buying from Nate, he is a good stand up guy like you said and that's a solid car.

 

I got it from Nick who got it from Nate- And yeah the gold tooth will stay! Adds a little something! Yeah the car is solid for sure. The notch kit should be here soon so Ill post pics as I go-

Thanks!

 

Nice, Nate & Nick will be pleased to see her back on the road.

 

Its a fun car- Thanks

 

Picked up some goodies from Alex @ Gambino Customs........Gonna be some long nights ahead.....

 

hahahaha. Thats great your keeping my gold tooth.
She is looking good. I look forward to more progress pictures.

 

p.s. Ever since I got it and started working on it I had always envisioned that car in pearl white.
Let me know if you have any questions on it. (It's history)

Thanks,
Nate

 

Hey Nate..

I was thinking of a white (Pearl or matte) with a flaked out copper top..... You just might get to see it white! Thanks for the help in advance..... Ill keep pictures rolling in as it comes along! Should be able to start cutting the rear today...

Thanks

Jay

 

Standup?? Mois???? comic maybe......hahahaha seriously tho thanks man.

Welcome to the board J.... 'bout time you showed up here

 

Figured I would join since theres a wealth of information on here.....

Should have some pics later today of the rear getting cut up-

 

Heres the rear so far- Have to make a few minor adjustments and fab the 4-link-

 

DANG. That is looking good. Looks like you have plenty of skill to knock it all out.
Have you thought about chopping it yet?
Looks like your missing the left exhaust. Everything O.K. with that?

 

Welcome to hamb from Sweden

Nice bagging

 

Yeah, it broke off at the turn by the transmission- Gonna run some custom pipes... either lake pipes or dumped at the axle. Ill keep the photos coming...

 

Welcome from Ok!

 

Welcome from Haarlem, the Netherlands. Are you ready to chop?

 

Chopping the top is an option but I think I like the way it looks with the full top-
