I have added some pictures of the 1953 Ford that I bought for my project. Progress is coming along well. I have completed removing all the trim. The remotes for the shaved doors and decked trunk are installed. The hood has the louvers done, along with being decked and hood corners rounded. I am working on finishing the frenched headlights and have started on frenching the tail lights. Some layout work has also been done on the grill area. I completed lowering the car all around with a 2 inch drop in the rear and a 2 1/2 inches drop in the front. I think it is starting to look like my old ride.
Changed chrome ring so it screws in from front and can be removed. See www.customcarforums.com for full how to.
