Hey 40 Stude Dude.. Ive been busy man.. Mowing yards all summer and had that nova i fliped and sold.. I now have the caddy at my house and not my grandpas went out and bought a 60 gallon compressor and alot of tools.. Ive been wrenching on the caddy alot i have alot of little things ive done just waiting to put it as one big post one whole side and rear half should be getting painted the black ive been doing this weekend.. Wheres your caddy??
ON the street...where it should be...got 200 miles on it now...starting to do the bodywork on it...have the ruff framework built for the loooo-oooong 'Cruiser' type skirts I'm putting on it as well as getting some other smaller things taken care of... Here's a shot or two of it at the local cruise...mine's in the middle...that's my bro's '54 in Turquoise (w/flames) and my pal's, Ron, '56 Caddy in white... Good to hear you've been busy...and you've got the Caddy at your place...that Nova got you some tools, eh...??? R-
Damn that is looking good. I really like the white one. But yeah that nova gave me some more experience and got me a good amount of cash to buy me the tools i didnt have, and the tools my gramps had. Now i got basically what my gramps had at his house. And yeah been real busy with lawns, and side jobs on cars body work and other little things. Now school too. But im now shooting for turn key by december or january. Lets see what happens. But i want to two tone the car befor i pull it out on the road. U say two tone from the molding around the top up including the centers of the doors, or from the drip rail up????
Here's mine. I think it's blue and white, but I've had it called everything from green to blue to tourquise.
I dont know about two tone but i think my all time favorite is the three tone Buick station wagon that has been on here before. sorry i dont have a photo but i bet someone can get one. if i remember it is black, candyred and white???
Not to Hamb freindly (Billet wheels) but this is a Lincoln we just finished up http://www.alteredimagecustom.com/gallery/albums/userpics/normal_tn_Lincoln_013.jpg
