    Could you post a straight side (profile) picture? The proportions look spot on.

    Thanks for all the comments. I just untaped the car after spraying the scallops last night, it's nice to see it start to come together after this LONG 5 week journey. Got to plumb and wire it, still have a ways to go. Post some more shots later-Derrick

    Got to be one of the few shows out there, if not the only one, which drives guys to thrash and put a car together in a month's time to run around a vintage track.... nice job Derrick, and Clark and crew as well.

    For all those who didn't go to the Jalopy Showdown, I did get the car finished and down there. I wouldn't have been able to do it without some help. So I'd like to give a thanks to Doug(lowdug32) Tyler (tyrell) Scott (alleyoop392) Jere (spezialatat71) and some of my suppliers and anyone else who took the time to help me get it done in 6 weeks. Here's a few shots after the parade laps.

    Looked great in the Street Rodder article this month. They do take their time in getting features into the magazine.
