  5. Nice! You'll be the Tri-five canted quad King! Now you need a '57 with them.

    Car looks super, can't wait to see it in person.

    You'll have to fill us in on the tires when you get it.

    except for a color change it is virtually the same as it was back in 65 when it was finished. I don't plan on changing anything immediately.

    Was gonna say gorgeous, but 2 or 3 already said that. Was gonna say beautiful, but that's been used already, too.
    Damn, that's nice. Love everything about it.

    What I have heard or read from books and magazines that old Kustoms rarely survive in such great condition. This one looks Perfect !!! I actually have that Popular Customs magazine and as Mark told, it`s unchanged relic from 60`s Great score !!!
     
  25. Looking at the interior


    Mrs elegance or this ?

    dang , you got me all tingly !!!!!

    the offer still stands for mrs elegance :D
     
  26. The front and taillights plain work with the car, this may be my new favorite Custom. That interior is a work of art, despite its radicalness it’s an exercise in tastefulness.
     
  27. I love the gauge layout, dash is very well thought out. Also the tuck-n-roll seat backs...
