    John builds some of the nicest car around if you look at the fit a finish of his cars it's just amazing. His welding is top notch and his louvers are always perfect.

    The Olays are some of the nicest people you will ever meet. In my eyes John is one of the most under rated builders around. Plus Georgann makes some of the best salsa I have ever had:D

    Other than the automatic transmission, I think I'm in love with your car. This reignites the fire for me to revive some 1920's & 1930's metal. mmm

    Very well done!

  15. I would say that is the nicest A Sedan ever built.

    great stance...ive always liked them without the exposed engine. Wire wheels are also tits so A+ in my book thats fore sure.
     
  17. Lotta neeat details on the car! Weld done! I'm really diggin the underdash shifter too. Killer stance, the way the frame sticks threw the back of the body as a nerf/ bumper is awesome.
