    My friend just finished his build and thought some of you mind enjoy seeing the pics. As I've mentioned earlier the car started as a sport coupe he's had since the early 80's, and he built this from scratch, with no blueprints or anything, just trial and error.

    The build may be too modern for some, but hopefully many will enjoy.

    I'm surprised there aren't more replies. That is a GREAT looking hot rod. I bet the interior is putting a lot of people "here" off, but that is a lot of work and it sure turned out nice. I really like the stance and tire sizes on that one. Have fun with it-

    Great car! I'm in the process of building a huckster. What kind of wood did you use for the framing?

    Think it looks nice

    the work on the body looks very well thought out, not some clapped together out of proportion things ive seen, when not given any idea of where to start.


    The interior wouldnt be my choice, but,,, its not my car if he's having fun with it and driving it ,, than its more then i can say about my A at the moment
     
  12. Not my cup of tea, but much respect to such fine craftsmanship.
