    Great work!
    I'll be watching this one too,there is not too much chopped early 60's Cadillacs.I guess the windscreen issues are one thing that get people scared for the chopjob.
    Are you going to use stock windscreen as shortened or whats your plan?
    Keep it coming!

    I.B., smokin build man, I love the no-holds approach. Very cool that Jeff Meyers took time to work with you some. This should be a compliment to Minor Threat in the garage, hope you can make room in the front seat for your big balls. Killer man. ~sololobo~

    That's too nice guys :)!!! Been Jammin' on the cadillac and i got some pics for later today or tonight!! window trim and wing windows done on the passenger side, front sheet metal mocked up... etc....

    For those who asked about t shirts... I have an order coming soon, I only order L and XL, I have a few XXL left and i will also order a few XXXL, Ive had a few people ask!! 20$ shipped. They are AAA brand. White or Black...Maybe Red soon. Im just a one man home operation, for now..... So it takes me a while to get the funds between buying Cadillac parts and buying the shirts!!:(

    After im done with the Cadillac, Ill be getting busy on people's cars for sure, will move into a BIGGER space and make it more official..:eek:
    Bummer about the cadillac right now, it's all out of pocket and making no money!! :( And there's a few friends from the HAMB who are ready for some kustom work... But just dont have the space here at the house .
    I think its a gonna be a good thing to have 2 finished cars from different eras. Oh well.... Like any job, Gotta pay your dues!!:eek:

    I am so happy you guys dig it... My wife is for sure VERY excited!!!

    Thanx a bunch guys!!!

    There is quite a few pieces in the wing window assembly and 2 I'm not so happy with , it's all trial and error! I have those 2 pieces ordered already! But I'm very happy to see the front end mocked up! I see new lines! :)

    Thanx everyone! :)
