    Well been a while since I last posted an update, been so freakin burnt out on the coupe that I had to step away for a while, plus me and pop were building a 40x80 shop with a vintage gas station out front! :D

    Any way a little update... using a 60s square chrysler wheel in the coupe now to gimme some room and look a little different!

    More pics later as I go....

    Wow Chad, the shop & coupe look GREAT! What an awesome shop that will be to work out of!

    Love the 49' dash treatment too. I have a very clean one that I am saving for something:D. A T coupe is on my bucket list, truly one of my favorites. You are getting close too my friend. You have the floor,******* hump & tunnel in, you are close to having a car!

    Thanks for the update Chad

    Thanks Dan!! Yea I don't know if having the gas station (AKA Man Cave) attached to the shop is a good idea? It'll have sat tv and A/C... oh and the 50s fridge with all the beer! :D
