  4. You're right 46, I want to do the tailgate and fenders and lots of white pinstriping. Rod & Custom will be doing the feature so they can use the build pics if they want to. After that I will post some stuff...Lynn Bird

    Wow.. that's just beautiful. Can't say there's a single thing about it I would change. Great job! I look forward to seeing it in R&C.
     
  15. What he said, in spades. That thing is over the wall. :) What a great looking car.
    I love that look and that period. I can hear the Beach Boys/Jan and Dean now:p.
    Am I allowed to say that?:eek::D Surf City where we come....

    Im so jealous
     
  19. Yeah it does look like a model kit. Keith Weesner's art was also a big factor in the build....L.B.

    It's a nice ride, and is, imo, an excellent version of a traditional hot rod;...west coast style! I like the fenders too!

    There is clearly some very nice, clean work there, but I just don't like it. I think it reminds me too much of vw tub style dune buggies or something...

    All that and a Hemi to boot. I thought I had entered the Twilight Zone and it was 1966 again.
