Well, the fenders aint wheeled yet, I'm doin it tomorrow, but I had to set it on for some pics lol! But its gettin there, still gotta paint the hood and STILL waitin on the chrome for the side glass. I dont like the front tires, but I'll wait for a bit and get somethin taller when I got some extra cash!:(

I'm sooo proud of this thing man, I cant believe after 4 years its finally comin together and its COMPLETELY home built...well, except for the sewin on the seats lol...and the help of a few friends of course!!:beer:

I've had "perma-grin" all night!

Beautiful car Gary! I just have a few questions.

Are you using Checkered's dropped spindles? Are you running their rear set-up also? What size wheel & tire is that?
