    Hi There

    I'm waiting for my first Hotrod to arrive here in Denmark. It has been kindly processed by Rex Rogers at Custom Auto in Denver, CO who did an awesome job on the sheetmetal. I bought the Slant from Dustin Nere a colleague to Rex.

    I expect the car to arrive here in DK early January. Can't wait to see it "live". Have only seen pictures since the purchase in Oktober 2010...:)

    Hope to find some inspiration and good ideas in The H.A.M.B forum so i can finish the project and get rolling...

    Regards
    Morten Bak-Fredslund

    Hi Palle

    These pictures where taken by Dustin Nere in year 2000 when he found the car.

    I bought it in oktober 2010 from him and he had done some work until then. The car looked like this then...

    Dustin is working in the bodyshop at Dave Crouse's shop Custom Auto in Denver. www.realhotrods.com

    I needed someone who could do the remaining metalwork on the car and Dustin's colleaque Rex Rogers was the man for the job.

    He worked on the car for 4 months and got it to look like this:

    the car has been sitting in Texas waiting for transport home to Denmark for quite a while now, but i hope to pick it up the first week of january 2012.
