Yep bought the car 5 years ago
And have always wanted a super cool and smooth hot rod and i fellin love with the fleetline bodystyle and have always like the pro street/race style look.
This was great just wrapping it in a 48 chevy shell.
Also yes indeed never welded a lick until this project took my time and of course it was frustrating and threw away some cool ideas that thought just wasnt as nice as they coud be and continued to be patient, and waaaal la.
Fortunetly most of the big fab work is done, its been nice to finally get to the fun stuff like building the console etc.
The car has the "V" theme through out if you really look from the shape of the hand formed bird under the hood to the steering column mount and cover to the designs in the wheels the gauge cluster etc. little hints through out that i wanted to keep as a neat classic looking theme.
Hell maybe i'll call it the "V" ROD lol
Low mount"Right" side alt. not left in mock up
Wrapped new rockers under the car 5"s more to the body lip for a cleaner look and to eliminate that ugly body lip that hangs under most cars!
