The picture before the last is as it appeared in the month of May, of the 2015 Rodder's Journal Calendar, with louvered 1 piece Rootlieb hood, Diamondback wide whitewalls & '56 Oldsmobile Fiesta spinners. A very expensive professional high end build. I have many pictures of the build. I would consider a trade of equal quality for a 1934 Ford 3 window all steel coupe.
