    For anyone interersted to see what the car looks like now,look on page 33 of the chopped Chevy post that is running now! I started a seperate post just so no interested people would miss it. You can see the rear of the car in the pic of the 57 Merc pick up

    I was browsing thrue some old magazines yesterday and found this photo in I believe a Custom Rodder from 1981.

    Makes me wonder how the car is doing now.... also makes me wonder why they replaced the grille with a stock 49 grille???

    And here are some photo's I think where posted on this board in another post as well. Possebly these where taken before the the car was "finished" in the light color as seen above.

    Rikster,that is the photo I was thinking of in my original post. Thanks for finding and posting it!! I wonder if it is sitting in a garage someplace?? It lasted into the 1980's.I hope it is still around.
     
  13. I saw another pic of the car in another thread, thought I should post it here, it's the bottom car:
