  12. Ok its finally back from Ron's interior shop. Here's some pics of Ron's stiching. Ron did it in a pearl white with blue metal flake piping. The head liner is also done the old school bow style not the street rod glued up stuff. Ron did a great job of reworking the 70's Caddy 6 way power bench seat to make it look more old school and at the same time make some extra head room for Tim as he's on the tall side.

    WOW, what a Merc! A true piece of art IMHO. Love the interior. My only comment is that part of a switchblade for the auto trans shifter? Not really diggin that piece.
     
  16. Looks really nice! Kinda on the fence about the shifter/switchblade,but it could be worse,hahaha!
    How long til we get to see it? Will you be at the LB Motorama?

    Damn nice, you should be proud. Get in her and start towards James Dean, Ducktail Run in Gas City In. and you got a place to stay.

  22. Hey Bob, Thanks for the good words.

    Yes it will be at the LB Motorama. Just got off the phone with Trace and it sounds like this years show is going to be very kool. I am also bringing the Olds Rocket and my old shop truck. Not sure if my old shop truck should go inside or outside as it has a few road scars ???

  25. (The Stiletto) Tim's merc made it to the Motorama show last weekend. Tim's merc was competing for the Kustom D Elegant award and made it to the Finall's but Lowes more than awsome 1940 Ford won.
