    Stef: Great work, that body looks flawless. Paint is beautiful, we seldom see green done properly.

    Stacks! That looks like a new Calif. 'dolled-up' '54 Coupe...circa 1954-1956.
    (used to see them like that when they were almost new...guys with new families would "just drop 'er a coupla inches...pipes...Hey, ya gotta have skirts..."
    By that time, the wives were O.K. with it, they were getting compliments at the supermarket.
    Like to see how you did the continental kit, bumper doesn't look to be extended!
    (my '54 is raised up, wish I still had my Foxcraft skirts...I'd drop the front and drag its tail...)

    Great looking 54. My first car was a 1954 Customline Club Coupe in 1962. Love those 54s. This my 54 today not the same one but pretty close to it. 20130519_112020_1-1.jpg
