    I got my chassis almost done..Well not me but Peter at the Old Ford Store here in Tucson, Az and let me tell you Did Peter did An Awesome job for me. He still has to finish a few thing up before I get to bring it home but I am really jazzed right now.
    Iwas on the fence about fender or no fenders and I went with fenderless on a 32 frame and I could not be happier.
    I have a picture and a movie but I have no clue how to do the movie so that wil have to come at a later date..

    Looking good, something about the rear roofline reminds me of an old ChrisCraft boat. I really like it, never seen something like that before.

    Well that is just bitchin'. Hadn't seen any earlier posts.

    Fenderless was the right choice. You didn't ask but I would go with a full hood and a deuce grill (yeah, I know but it covers the frame and suspension stuff).

    Keep us posted - it's really cool and different!

    I may have a hood top done but no hood sides( gen sticks way out) I decide to run the 29/29 grill I think it fits the car better.
