    Thanks. i spent alot of time blocking it out and getting it as straight as possible. I give any bodyman credit because it's not easy. This is my second time painting a car, and im pleased as the results. But i need the practice if that what i want to do. :cool:

    That's awesome! I drove a 55 Chevy with a 235 and fenton headers when I was in high school during the early 90's. Rebuilt the car after college but still have it today. Enjoy that ride of yours, it's looking great!

    Wow man, I just found this thread. Your a lucky guy. Let me tell you, your car will be the one remembered. All the posers with their cracker jack box, jap **** cars will be lost and forgotten. Yours will live on in high school memories forever. When the cuties ask for a picture next to your car just say sure! I have no doubt that before long your going to have a long list of young ladies that want a ride. Have fun, go low and slow.
