    Got my 31 back from my buddy's body shop today. He painted my top after I did a 3" chop. Drove it back to my shop in the 20 degree weather with no windshield, and I was grinning all the way..
    Before, during, and after pictures.

    Dang e z i if I had of been paying attention I would have been able to squint and see the acorns twinkling just inside the hood louvres and known it got a v8 too. I will write 20 times "I will pay more attention to hot rods!" I promise! ;)
