    Being able to have the car finished and at the gnrs was great, to be recognised by your peers with an award was iceing on the cake! Thanks ACES cc!

    Hey Congrats and what a way to intro your new car to the public but with an award from the Aces at GNRS... those guys are legit!

    Heres mine along with all its 64' running gear which will set on a 32 chassis like yours but w window frames removed and a folding style top! It will b awhile until I finish my house before I can tear into it but after seeing yours I cant wait to start!

    so I had a cracked pan rail and after a drive up to fresno to see nailhead jeff found a replacement block. Now a fresh rebuild! I put the new mill in this weekend and drove the car yesterday.
    Nailhead jeff is awesome he did a great job! Highly recommended he knows his stuff!

    With the rebuilt engine in I was able to put some miles on the car. The rear suspension was too soft and I wanted more rake anyway, so I added back 4 more leafs. I also took the longer shakles off and was real happy with the new stance. Hot rods need rake!

    Too soft? Ha! I do not believe "too soft" has ever been used to describe any hot rod in history! Looks great though. Gary

    Gads, with all that wire on top of the fence, it looks more like a jail break! Have fun enjoying it all. Gary

    Thanks again.
    first couple months of a new build involves "working out the bugs". The car is a blast to drive! of all the cars I have built this is the most fun so far. (maybe cause it has 3 pedals)

    I may not have included a shot of the interior..Tony Guardado of the Cavaliers CC did the work- if you need Interior/Top- upholstery done PM me for his contact info.

    You have to have at least one kustom car and one authentic hot rod in your stable! Looking good, buddy!
