    I can hardly wait. This is one of my favourites. I used to make model kit hybrids much like this.

    Thanks Jim coming from you thats an honor,As you have built many an awesome rides!!
     
  19. Its close now, lookin sharp.
    The chrome trim is going to make it pop.
    The 5T7 looks great, even being hard to photograph.
    It'd have to be an exciting time for you, as I'm sure some of us here, are excited. Nothing like the last stages of a shine project. :)

    I really like what you did with the dash. And you will be fine with that steering wheel. I drove my car on the streets and drag raced with one just like it for several years with no problems.
