You've done a great job all the way through on this on, taking something many people ignore and making it a viable cruiser. The interior indeed looks great, and compliments that lipstick red outside 100%. Bet she'll turn some heads around town on the shakedown runs!Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

Thanks, all. Other than a few minor bugs to address, it's pretty much done. My wife and I gave it a bath today and took it out a little. It runs and drives really nice. Should be hitting the first show next weekend.1 Corinthians 1:27

Well, congratulations on building an awesome looking sleeper and if you don't get a reward for that interior alone, people just don't get the " Old School " look, I love it and the whole car is bloody marvellous.
I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.

Yes sir, I like it. Beautifully done!The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is.

I hope your wife enjoys it as a daily cruiser(at least I think this was built for her?) Post some pics of the awards you get at your first show!

The car loses it's "sleeper" status with that eye-popping color.....nobody can sleep around that! but taking a gander under the bonnet of this nicely done "MoFo" will certainly cause some additional eye-popping, raised eye brows, high-fives and many awards! It's an innovative combo that should be fun, fast enough, dependable and somewhat economical to drive around turning heads and enjoying the raised thumbs! Congrats, Falcon!!! I've really enjoyed following your awesome build and tossing in an occasional smart-a$$ comment.....

My grandfather, mom's side, drove a 39 Plymouth coupe when I was about 4 or 5 and I thought it was pretty cool and I loved the tail fins on the 49 Cadillac. I drew cars when I was in the 5th and 6th...
