    Another Italian art master. The only difference is this one is alive, and I get to see a masterpiece come to fruition.

    Those carbs look exotic. Yet, their the same ones on my truck. I must have done something wrong!
    There will be no need to keep the hood closed on this custom.

    Engine/tranny in, Ford nine inch rear in, car is wired, all lines ran, front suspension done...body and glass next...getting closer to having it on the street...
