Love it!

Some mistakes are too much fun to be made only once.
I don't know everything about anything, and I don't know anything about lots of things.

well, this project just became a reality. I just signed the bill of sale on the rolls royce pictured for 6 grand, and I think I'm going to put it back together, which shouldn't take long considering all the missing parts are there and have been rechromed and/or fixed. After i've restored it to glory, I'll see how i feel about chopping it and rodding it.

Someone around here has a signature which reads, it takes a man to cut it up.
But that car has some beautiful body lines, subtle changes could be the way to go..
Education is expensive. Keep that in mind, and you'll never be terribly upset when a project goes awry.

Yea I agree, I think some small changes can go along way on this car. I like how its starting to come together so far, but im still thinking about taking a Lil off the top. Maybe just an inch or 1-1/2", but other than that idk.

You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
