    I am stoked !! Alex is really doing an aw sum job on my cab and I need to share. I am building a 1939 Ford PU. With a few mods. The concept drawing is by E Black design. My plans are a 3" chop, dropping the stock Grille assembly and blending in a 36 passenger grille and partial hood with louvers , I will be running a Buick 322 nailhead with 6 97's. Here is a few pics of Alex doing his Artistry .

    Nice project. If it turns half as nice as the artist's drawing it'll be killer.

    That's gonna be awesome. I'm jealous!
     
  12. Be sure to post pix of the grille swap too. The horse collar grille is unique enough but that rendering is inspiring. Are they laying back the pillars or stretching the roof?

    Thats tight. If it turns out anything like the drawing. Flathead or Nailhead, it will be nice. Good Luck .
    PS its in good hands . But you know that already.
