Well . . . I'm a long ways from you, but I love the shoeboxes. Are you doing a full custom or what was known as a mild custom back in the day? A lot of the so-called mild customs borrowed a lot from the hot rod crowd and in fact some of them really hauled the freight. A couple of pics for you. First pic, my best friends 49 and I bought it when he left for the Army. Pic circa 1958. 2nd pic one of my 50 coupes with Rocket motor.
