Well it's make or break time. Hope all's well Kevan and that you, the Merc, Tim and the rest of the boys have a cracking weekend!

Thanks, Rik Hoving Kustoms for doing all the exiting ideas for this project. The prewar roof chop and all the small details like trim, and hubcaps among the many changes on the car, you really have made a true prewar Kustom.
