    Posted pics of this car back in the fall when it was a roller in primer. Here's a few of the finished paint job. Some wild, old school stuff on the roof and decklid. Had to re-size the pics so the quality is not the best, but you'll get the idea!

    I can't take the credit. It was done by luckys8ba on here for a friend of his. Paint was done in his garage!! He does some great work out of a little garage.

    I've been around a loooooong time and this one brings back some memories of when I was active drag racing in the 60's. Well done.
