    Glad u like it. It's hard for me to get time to work on with life and such. But I try my best, I love the look of a big car on the ground. It's lower then the 68 mustang in the background lol. I'll send u a pm on more details. If you have any questions just ask

    These two are my favorites of the oldies.
    I know the one w/ the Gipsy Rose inspired design was Grouchos cause he posted those on the Lowrider thread.
    Of the "modern" one Lee Pratts is inspirational to say the least.
    58s are really growin on me, no matter if its an Impala or whatever, but im really startin to like'em loads!

    Man, I just keep losing days looking at all the pics...I love that car & its basically where it all started aside from Watsons...wich way to go...wich way to go?? :):)

    The guy had some parts that were missing so i just got them in the mail...lolol...rims, aircleaner, NOS carpet still in the box and some fenderskirts that are still in the boxes as well....BigChief got the 3x2 intake all cleaned up & next is the carbs....It sucks not having heat out in the garage cause its cold as hell esp cause the garage door isnt aligned the greatest...snow blows right in but it makes me think about the Alexander Bros story on the Mad Fab videos that they talked about while trying to paint one of there cars...maybe i should use it to my advantage too...LMAO..Dad threw the towel in on his so that going down to my uncles to get the brakes updated & etc....lolol...Atleast his will be on the road soon & i can drive something..haha

    NICE... looks like a really solid car to start with

    Ive got a 63ht right now... hoping one day Ill find a 61 vert, but like you said the chances of finding a clean/solid/unmolested one are pretty slim

    good luck with the project
