    My Father in-law brought this home a couple of weeks ago. He bought it from a gentleman who has had it since 1955. Sitting in his garage since 1956.

    Finally, someone who likes those hinges. I have been trying to tell them how cool they are.

    Its a super nice body. Dave will make it incredible no doubt.

    It's one of those authentic hot rod touches from back then that no one likes doing anymore. I think it helps hint at the fact that this is a genuine hot rod from all those years ago.. I wouldn't take those off but that's just me.

    Those are called "faired" hinges, early streamlining.
