    Love the car man. Glad you kept hubcaps and wide whites, cant beat that look.
    I think i would have gone with 3 inch blocks, but it looks fine.

    If i were you id take off the lake pipes, lower it a bit more, keep ALL the remaining trim (the pillar trim removal was a good idea though), and repaint the body with the same color green, maybe just pigmented primer until you do the real thing.

    PS the flaked skirts are awesome

    any pics of you pushing BIG MAUDE ? that would be very intertaining. on a serious note, i'm glad she's running better.
     
  23. Man!!! I could only imagine pushing it that far but on top of that barefoot. If you need to re home your skirts I know my '59 has been asking me for some! Hahahahha

    Glad you're ok tho, one time I had to push mine down my old driveway and that was a good enough workout for me.
