    I wanted to post a few pictures from the crazy weekend I had getting LowSalle on the road with shiney paint. I had a great time at GoodGuys West Coast Nationals in Pleasanton and took home "Chopped and Dropped". Window trim and I am finishing up the interior over the next few weeks.

    Nice improvement over the already-best-looking fat fender car to start with. I don't recall any others of that model, certainly not that nice. Congrats, I was following the build.

    Wow, that car came out great. I've seen at least one photo of it in every photo coverage I've seen of the event so every one else's cameras must love it too.

    That will go down as one of the great customs of this era as nothing distracts from the whole car and no one thing dominates the car from any angle.

    Beauty! I've worked on a stock car of the same year and wondered how it would look as a custom. Very cool is the answer... :cool:

    Nice! Put me down for ditching the "well used" 57' caps and go with some sombreros for that early custom look.
