  10. You don't see many custom Plymouths..,.the chop looks good. Post some more photos when you have it outside.
     
  11. Matt, you should have been here 7 or 8 years ago.....this place wasn't so user friendly back then.

    I'll prob have it outside on sunday for some pictures.

    Matt - i always liked the content and builds on this site, but unless its purely traditional most people will shut you out. You can see the front fender of my first real build in the pic with the chop progess, completely non traditional 33 glass body build. I mentioned it on here and realized it was definitely not the place for that build thread.
     
  14. How about some new cars???

    Okay...Mine is getting closer to this era a little at a time. I lost the side scallops (see avatar or profile) and installed Packard side spears today.

    My car doesn't fit the bill on this thread.. But after going through 12 pages of cars, I had to say something! Nice work everyone! My favorite car is that orange convert 51 thus far, but I'm somewhat partial to 49-52 chebbys!
