    I decided I needed a new mail box... Something to set my house off from others. I wanted to represent my addiction to old cars and hot rods. I looked around and I was certain I didn't want a fibergl*** street rod box like I see all over.. So after a few mins of messing around on auto cad.... I had it drawn and ready for the plasma table...it's been on the back burner . However today i finished it up and it's ready for blasting, it will be ht rod black and lots if hand pin striping done by my older brother ... I know one thing, its 1/8 plate construction and weights about 150lbs total. I hope someone doesn't try to smash it ;)

    I like it, I wouldn,t worry about someone smashing it, I would worry about some sob steeling it.
