Your wife did a fantastic job on interior. Nice car!
thanks, if I get time to get it titled next week we will have it at its first cruise night/car show on July 26th. Then off to Evansville, Indiana in it for Frog Follies end of August, Biloxi Mississippi Cruisin the Coast first of October and Moonshine Festival in Dawsonville Georgia end of October.
Final photo set. All done. Tag, titled and insured. Put a few miles on it this week. Have to swap out to a higher stall speed converter for the transmission as the stock converter and the 283 solid lifter fuel cam are not getting along at idle speed but no other problems. 14 month project by calendar but with several months at a time not working on it at all actual build time is 9 months of work put into it. Had the transmission rebuilt and had the seats upholstered, all other mechanical, paint and upholstery work done by wife and I at home in our garage. Driving to several car shows all over the eastern US the next 3 months. After that time to start the next build. I have a new 34 Ford N&N body in stock so might build that or else will be a early 1960's period correct gasser out of a chevy II or Corvette.

Looks real nice. Congrats on the fast build, and way to go doing almost everything yourself. That has much been my goal for the truck from the start, but I'm up to 7 years now! ;)
It came out just gorgeous.. congrats to you and the "team"!
I tried to like your pictures but keep getting an error so I while just say - "I like your pictures...and the car in them."
Congrats, has a great look, and sits just right!

Good on you, now, drive the wheels off it!
What size are those rear tires?
275-60 17 on rear tire size Goodyear over 30" tall tire plus I lowered the car using 2" shorter coil over springs in back and 6" dropped axle in front instead of the 4" that originally came with it. Hate to see much wheel well exposed above rear tire in back.
It looks amazing, and that is awesome to get it done so fast! Great work!
That looks awesome!! Great Job!
