    Cool car, so how did you get the back that low? I've pancaked my 40 sedan rear crossmember, and my axle is pretty close to the frame now and not low enough. Did you c notch it? Looks cool, skirts will make it.
     
  3. I say add the Skirts for a 40s look, there isn't enough 40s style customs in Oz. Leave them off if you want that 50s look that everyone does here.
     
  4. yes love the color and skirts wood set it off soooooo nicely... u have great ride

    Beautiful car! I'm anxious to see it with skirts.
    My personal guess is that it will look better without since the car is not chopped.

    Perfect like it is. Excellent looking and I want it--LOL
     
  16. No now it is a mini truck.

    Don't drop the front any. If anything maybe a wee bit lower in the back but other than that beautiful car. The skirts will look killer on it.
     
  17. That's a beauty ! I'd drop the back a little more, leave the front alone,add the skirts and ride !

    The skirts will add the last 5% to a 95% perfect car!
     
  26. I feel it would be better to call it perfect than a tail dragger, looks great bro

    Good looking '41. I'd lower the front a little more, in spite of what Rik says :)
     
  28. Here's a photoshopped version of the car when it used to wear skirts.
