    That pic right there! Wow! So unbelievable you’d think it was photoshopped. Love that sleek profile.

    Dayumm! I am starting to finally put back together a '51 coupe with a swapped chassis and there are a lot of little things that I was thinking "how am I going to ______?" and possible solutions are right there in your thread. Gracias.
    Just curious, how tall are you?

    I am 3' 34" it's not too bad once I get in. I got a extra 6" out of the toe board when I did the firewall which makes a big difference.

    So it's been a while so let me update. Since my last post I've got glass installed and then did not like the tradition from roof to back window so I pulled it out and in process of redoing it again. In the process of that I am redoing the driver side door striker post and quarter. Re skinning the pass quarter. Then working my way up and finishing the roof.

    Here she is with her front and rear glass glory. Done by Paul's all pro autoglass in Hesperia California. Amazing service by Paul. He drove up the day I left for viva and cut and installed the glass in my driveway. 20180418_140043.jpeg 20180418_172558.jpeg 20180418_172616.jpeg

    Here she is out side at viva 21. You can see from the 3rd photo the less than ideal tradition from roof to glass. 20180419_152701.jpeg 20180422_121045.jpeg 20180422_120247.jpeg 20180422_124802.jpeg

    Here's some shots from replacing the driver quarter plus striker post. The original quarter had been harley damaged sometime in its lifetime. The fix was a half done quarter skin that was brazed every 10 inches and mudded over. There was gaps in the post you could stick a finger in. I sectioned the quarter off the car so I could tig it and help keep warping to a minimum. It's a 99% improvement. 20180526_204011.jpeg 20180602_130208.jpeg 20180805_150328.jpeg 20180805_161627.jpeg 20180825_224151.jpeg 20180801_211328.jpeg 20180827_214651.jpeg 20180827_213501.jpeg 20180828_231250.jpeg 20181103_174609.jpeg

    Picked up an award for under construction at the fun in the sun car show. Also picked up a set of drenched headlight rings from Jeff Spence custom rings and got them tacked on. Took 2 sets of headlight buckets to add a extra inch and mount them on the inside of the fender. 20180923_144153.jpeg 20181024_200851.jpeg 20181024_203547.jpeg 20181024_230640.jpeg Screenshot_20181104-154123.jpeg

    Some random candid shots from friends and other photographers I've found. No particular order. From Cruisin nationals, Ventura nationals, Bakersfield toy run, Wings n' wheels, and local cruise night at Chuys. Also new news is I'm now apart of the Loco Banditos car club.
