    Nice work,Like your ideas an follow through!
    I guess laying the headlights over a little to the sides maybe?or the center Chevy left over from parklights put between center of headlights? I don't don't know,just ideas,but something looked missing to me,but it an't me doing.
    2 cents=I'd really think about a bigger steering wheel if your going to really drive it,13in. D. maybe the very smallist drivible with good control IMHO.

  24. Love where this is going but I am somewhat mad at you, I have been hanging on to a set of rear quarters from a 1956 Dodge Custom Royal and now I see where I need to one day build them in to a show rod...

    I am getting close to paint I am almost complete with body work,I installed all the trim for final fitment keep in mind some trim is new some is used so some needs to be polished and rechromed.

    Thanks for the pictures on the body, you are doing some excellent work.
    Glad you could take time for posting a progress report, it is obvious you are spending a lot of time on the build
