Funny you mention the rear bumper. Michael says he does not want the bumper because of the fit. We may, and I only say may because we have to finish this thing at some point, and save something for another car, but I am looking at cutting the bumper down and flush mounting it, or nearly flush.

Dammit Frank, get out of my head! I was with my sheetmetal guy Friday just discussing this issue. I am going to narrow the bumper where it stops at the side of the car and nicely fairs in. This will require me to flush the area on the side of the quarter where it will be smooth that the bumper once covered. Of course the bumper bolts will be flushed and rechromed.

The car looks great! as for the bumpers I think you should ahead and cut it down so it fits around the car! We did this on the Nomad we are doing along with sectioning the the ends so they don't stick out so far and we sectioned the bumber gaurds for a sleeker look!
I say cut the bumber!!
I'm sure what ever you decide will look great! the car speaks for itself as far as design features go!KENNY DAVIS HOTRODS

I have to say that I'm lucky that I live close and have had the opportunity to visit Frank's shop a few times. I'm truly amazed each time. I thought the yellow 69 convertible was awesome, but Michael's car looks to one up that one.

I hear there is another convertible on the way to the shop
Might have really wide rear tires when it leaves

Looks sick!! That is the nicest stance I have seen on a 67-68 body style so far. I really like the gas cap idea and the wheels. The headers turned out great too.
I have soo much more respect for guys like you and other members in here that do everything yourself.
Well I am assuming that is you in the pic.

That would be Michael in the pics. Michael is a bit shy and won't post, so I handle the shamless plugs, LOL!

Man, what talent! Crap, the more I hear through the grapevine, the more true examples of PT cars I know will be at SEMA. I hope we can all arrange some kind of photo shoot with our cars together. I think it would prove to be an amazing scene.
