    Amazing!

    Someone needs to take the first rusty half body shot in his avatar and photoshop it with the most recent ones, Before & After in one spot. It's truly crazy how far it has come!

    Had to put this together.

    This build and that crazy Willys build are probably the two best saves I've seen. Talented people in this world :cool:

    The floor is a Brookville roadster floor. Virtually an exact copy of the original Ford Floor.

    I was going to make one and actually laid it out a could not get a pettern that I liked with my bead roller. Just not a deep enough throat

    Will make the supports next. Still need to fix the tulips on the qtrs
