Taillight swap

Allmost forgot this.You have to use good quality primer for jobs like this.

 

Very impressive work Kartsa!

 

That is killer.

 

"do-dads" i LOVE it!

 

Wow !!

 

Are you gonna use a little of that patterned metal from the hood under the headlights?

 

Very cool Kartsa ! Absolutely clean work and the outcome is great.Too bad the car's already "finished"...I could watch this go on and go on...

 

Wow great work !! . I do like your style .

 

Hey guys, you can fool nobody with that Photoshop modification... Oh, wait a minute, daaam it's REAL!!! Good work, looks like a "Barris" job for me.

Bttt for TECH WEEK!

 

Those taillights make the back look super clean. That front end treatment is one of the nicest i've ever seen!

 

Whoaw... I've allways liked Pekkas car the way it was mildly customized with the fabolous paint job... but now it has really turned out like a killer kustom that could have been taken straight from the cover of a late 50's rod & custom magazine. I love the way the packard taillights fullfills the rear fender lines. Hope to see your car around the upcoming summer.

 

This is why I click on any thread started by Kartsa. Impressive work, man.

 

Nice work! that rocks!

 

I thought the back end was cool but you really shit the bed on the front there. Looking forward to the CHOP???????

 

Wow awsome work,very kool

 

another bump for tech week.

 

BTTT.....Love this.

 

sweet sweet sweet work. I dig that front end treatment a lot!

 

I agree with J.B.
Great job!!! nice to see you here Pekka!... See you next year in Uddevalla for A-Bombers Old Style # 11

Klaus my man! Good to hear from you! Betcha I'm gonna haul that piece of lead over to A-Bombs, unless I collide it during the spring activites as I did last year... Send my love to Cindy!

And by the way superflye, them rear lites comes from Kaiser, thanks Mano from those!

Drove the car back home from Kartsas garage and wasn't I shaken from exitement! Next step is a bored 292, auto, bags etc. Loads of stuff to do before next spring. Thanks Kartsa.

 

BTTT - Fuck me...
That is some fine craftsmanship. Soo nice.
I love it.
Great Job.

Keep us updated on the paint ...

 

anyone know how this turned out?

 

PITTT

Pop it to the top so we can see more pics.

 

I have never had the fortune too meet any of those Finlandian kuztomizers in person ( unless I was tooo drunk to remember ?? ) , But they sure impress me BIG TIME!!! They sure know their shit ... This great art-work by Janne is ( hopefully ? ) telling us what this neat Pontiac will look like in the near future

( Btw .. The owner is a well known pinstriper over here in Europe , and that Pontiac was among the finest BEFORE he decided it needed a total make over ... When those guys are finished with it , it will probably be THE finest among kuztoms built with the `55-`62 erea in mind .... IMHO , that is )

Very nice you sure are handy with a flame and a mask

 

This car is proof that a car does not have to be chopped in order to make a great custom.

 

Thanks for the nice words and especially Janne for the grand pic. You reckon I have to repaint the car? No scallops? Was it chopped in your pic?... Anyway, this baby is a no ride for this summer, front clip is just on its way but too much to do with dozens of other things. We'll finnish it up next winter with Ari Sinkkonen. Here's a pic of its present state...

 

Great job!! That was a fun post, the pictures told the whole story. Love that.

 

looks perfect...great job. I really like it.

 

Hey Pekka!

What clip are you using? See you at Old Style!
