    Just read the whole thread, at first i was like, that is not how it should... or that not right... but then you got further and I just couldn't believe what I was seeing. This is one of the most inspirational and one of the most amazing builds I have ever seen!:) Keep up the good work!
     
  5. Amazing! Well done!

    So had it pintriped red and off i went to a big car show this weekend. Parked it in a line of 200 mixed cars. I didn't put any build pix or no nuthi'n. On the windshield on the back of my Drywall buisness card i put "36 Dodge 3W....one of none." nobody said anything all day except cool car. I guess that i did too good of a job. blended right in.

    Incredible beyond words, the only thing I'd do is lower the front end a bit, it looks a little nose-high and that would really set off the lines nicely.

    So i was at a small car show last night and pissed a guy off. He asked what it was and when i told him he thought i was a a-hole just screwing with him and off he went. Cool!

    I gave up on my drum brake front axle and wanting to stop. Looks are out, I now have discs and new wheels to clear them. Made some gravel shield/scoops to vintage them up a bit. Stops good. Now i can go fast. Ray

    Is that a Scarebird set up? I'm sort of tired of dragging my feet to stop the Fordillac...

    OUTSTANDING!!!! I just read this whole thread, and your work is amazing.

    The only thing I would suggest is maybe chroming the piece that goes around the windshield, I think it would make it "pop" that much more while still being understated.

    Bravo.
