That's looking very, very good. I bet you're getting excited to get it running!

 

You said it. Can't WAIT!

 

Looking good! It's always the detail work that makes the difference.

 

Very nice job on the Flathead and trans ! Looks real good sitting in there .
I bet you can't wait till you get the chance to drive it down the road again !

Hey thanks guys! I love a job well done, especially when it's a job I did myself.
You can say that again Jim! The tires came in earlier this week(P215/75R15, 2&5/8" white wall I believe), now I'm just stripping the rims and going to paint them up this next week. Getting closer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

It's always the "Pride" you get from doing the job yourself ! That is a true hot rodder .
Anyone can pay someone to do the car for them but takes that special person to do as much of the work all by yourself or help from friends .

Again , job well done and looks great !

Jim
