I have good news to report! The car as of last week is now under new ownership and is scheduled to get finished. Looks like there may be a happy ending afterall! Thanks guys!
How can you lose interest in a car like that, ESPECIALLY when it's at a point where the light at the end of the tunnel is so bright! Good to hear it's got a new owner, so there be a heapin' helpin' of fresh inspiration. I'm seeing 22" billets and candy tangerine over purple paint.
could you send me some pics of the front lower door hinge post where it meets the rocker. Mine are completely gone on both sides and I need a reference to fabricate new ones thanks mkeeton1@yahoo.com
Don't know you Brian, but wood like to ! Love tha' WAY YOUR MIND WERKS!!! Great Ideas, Put in Action!...............Results !, Fan- _uckin' Tastic ! ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 5 stars ______________________________________________________________ Still Smokin' Not Kool!
This chop is the best, just purchased a 49 fleetline fastback for my wife,she didn't want any parts of chopping it untill I showed her this fantastic chop, her 49 will soon go under surgery hope it turns out half as good as this one.
Fantastic work, I'm so impressed it's hard to put into words, your a great craftmen. This fleetline is going to be so cool. Now, I know why, I didn't chop my '52 fleetline. CRUISER
I linked this thread as the be-all, end-all chopped fleetline in a FB thread today, so I'm bumping it to the top. Does anyone know whatever became of this car?
Yes it is! Unfortunately, as far as I know it was never finished and it had switched hands a few times since Brian finished his work on the car. It was for sale not too long ago if I remember correctly.
I vaguely remember that as well. Was wondering if anyone knew where it was, if it's getting worked on, etc. I feel like this car is too nice to not be finished.
