    It appears the hood has been cut and "pulled" out over the grille to eliminate the need for the hood to grille trim on this deluxe. Is that the case? Something I have toyed with on mine. Looks like a pretty extensive mod if this is so. Someone chime in with a how too.

    thanks for the props on the car. jeb has been doing a masterful job. if anyone really needs metal work, jebs the guy to do it. he can do it all.

    been leaning towards black, with black top, and black and cream interior

    Bill the car looks awesome.... Jeb is doing a fantastic job.

    not with all the details the real car has now... but black on black will be very nice

    With Black wall tires it will look very early 40's... but I still think I prefer the white walls.

    Nice photoshop. I couldn't really visualize it myself, but this will definitely be beauty.

    thought extensively about doing a carson top. jeb suggested maybe being able to have a convertible as well as a carson. might really consider it
     
  12. yea i stare at this car in person everyday. My opinion really means nothing to anyone but personally would just love to see a carson top. Your car is beautiful. Jeb knows how to nail a style.

    You ever notice that Jeb says the word, "fuck," alot? Is that an Alaskan thing or?

    Dude has talent.
     
  14. Saying "Fuck" is a side effect from excessive amounts of Haterade.

    Its a favorite of Jebs. Just kidding bud.

    The work is really great, if you had seen the car when it came in you would bet its not the same car. Jeb did all the alum. fab on our race car a real talent.--TV

    get your own pirate ship. first you try and burn my balls, now you throw me under the bus? What gives man? get a job!

    haha!

    thanks for all the kind words folks. we keep trying, thats all one can do. this one is a mild custom. small changes that make the big picture. Maybe the owner has a pic of what the car started life as and it will make even more sence.

    Limey steve-i think you should call your hot rod coffee "limey beans". i know, its one of my better ideas:D
     
  19. and limey...i dunno what geezer means on that side of the pond, but im thinking old man when i hear geezer. Finally, i have some support on telling Jeb hes old.
