    This car is amazing! I love the panels and how they handled the transition of the panels flowing from the roof to the trunk . You guys definitely have this Starliner at the same coolness factor as the Alaxander brothers Starliner. It looks and feels like a mix of that car and the watson bird to me and I am stoked to see how awesome it came out! Hope to have my galaxie at the santa maria show to see the panels in person!

    Nice Car! - Love everything about it, I think the pearl inserts in the interior are over the top.

    Thanks for the effort it took to post the pics during its construction.
    Good luck with that beautiful piece of art.

    Dude, drive it to Columbus so we can rub one on it too:D

    And bring Alex along. I met to ask him if he'd like to adopt a fat 39yr old:eek::rolleyes::D
    That's as close as I'd get to greatness.

    KIRK!, the car is outstanding. You and the Gambino family should be very proud.
    I can't wait to see it in person.

    I didn't take any. I wasn't working. I was selling in the swap meet.

    it looks it is going fast sitting there (I know that is not a normal custom comment). the way the paint fades in such a constant fashion really accentuates certain features of the car in person.

    my personal favorite detail is the "*" on the sign. congrats again Kirk.

    and the striping is just phenomenal, you have to see it, and probably still won't believe it was done sans tape.

    Looking from the rear side views, the paint looks a foot deep. Congratulations on owning one bad ass'd custom.Hopefully you and the build crew can catch up with some well deserved rest.....that is if you can stop smiling long enough to go to sleep.....Great build job/tutorial with incredible results.......Mike
