    I've only built motorcycles. This is my first attempt at a car from the frame up. It may not really be that traditional but I like it. It's fun, that's all that matters to me. It's the 34 ford on right

    Nice... love the stance, its refreshing to see something with a little bit of a "rake" .

    Yeah, I would love to see a full side shot. I want to drop the nose of my pickup cab too, but I was afraid it would look bad with the bed pointed up, but from that one pic it looks good. I hope my first build (which I am knee deep in) turns out half that nice.

  12. NICE! I really dig the scallops, but not too crazy for matching rides. Is one of those your woman's?

    Hahaha! No, the other is not my woman's car. It's my friends son's car. After seeing mine he begged me to tape off his. My friend owns a general repair shop in Rockledge Fl. We built the car there. He has never really built anything from the frame up. He's more of a muscle car guy. I've corrupted him. He is now building his own 39 ford truck. He has a 36 ford tow truck lined up next, and now drives a 47 pontiac as a daily driver.
     
  16. Nice truck. Good to see you save both the truck, and a "muscle car guy"!
