    a home yet. Jerry

  12. https://www.mcnichols.com/perforated-metal mcnichols is a good source for perforated stock. I have a stainless steel sheet that perfectly matches the 51 Ford dash perforation pattern. See post #95.

  13. my 56. The factory gas and temp gauges have been eliminated from the speedo. I added a full complement of repro greenline SW gauges to the dash. The glove box lid and ash tray have been chromed. There are several other details that most people will never notice

    Painted this one for my '47 Buick a long time ago when I had planned to paint the whole car. Now, decided to leave the original 2 tone teal colored paint. So, I'll be redoing this one in candy teal before it gets installed. PXL_20230911_214119282.MP.jpg
