    Yeah Biggen, Todd needs a stacker trailer. Maybe a old '60s moving truck with a ramp built on the inside to hold both cars. This is gonna be one TUFF ride.!!!

    Thats nice. Great work. But make sure you have enough room to exit the car for your legs. I mean the cowl. Lippy

    Got the car home late friday afternoon, unloaded with the help of some buddies and of course had to stand around and stare at it for awhile. WOW. I've dreamt about this car since I was 6 years old now I'm 41 and finally starting on it. I probably should have started saving my money when I was 6 for this project. All I have to do now is make it perfect. The pictures do not do this body justice. It is by far the nicest glass work I have ever seen. Harry was definitely the right guy for the job. He will be finishing the nose pieces in a couple of weeks and fitting them in my shop. Mattbe and his dad came over on Sunday to check it out, and take pictures. He'll post a couple. Keep in mind the wheels and tires are just rolled next to it. New 32x9x15's should be here next week. Then I can get to finishing the rear end. Todd.

    Set up for a SBC, blown, injected, alcohol with a little load. 3.90 gear, direct drive. But everything is subject to change.

    Hot Rod Harry here, I have managed to get some work done on Todd's nose, but have been interrupted by Hershey as well as a trip to Maryland Performance to take my Hilborn powered Willys to the chassis dyno. I will be back on track next week and working on the nose for Todd's killer kar. Thanks..........Hot Rod Harry

    Hot Rod Harry here with more updates on the rest of the body. I had to take some time out and take my car to the dyno for some tune up work. (I use George at Maryland Performance, Frederick, Maryland) Now that I'm back here are some of the latest. I am also going to rework the windshield/cowl area to give Todd more room to exit his car. The last picture is my 41 Willys Hilborn small block. Thanks..........Hot Rod Harry

    Todd slicks look sweet, putting pictures in my mind what will look like with the engine, it's gonna be outragious for sure.

    More pictures of finished bodywork on nose. Last one is in primer. I am now blocking and priming. Should be molds by end of next week. Notice the peak that Todd wanted on nose to match the one on the rear body section. Thanks all...........Hot Rod Harry
