'33 Ford coupe custom rod

Welcome back to the 80's! This started as the ZZ Top car. Originally I wanted it to be powered by a 930 Porsche, but after difficulty in fitting it at the rear, I went with the '55 Ford Panel truck engine. But I kept a number of other items from the Porsche, including the wing and numerous interior pieces. The nose was lengthened by adding the front section from a '41 Plymouth on the top, and (after numerous fails), I managed to fit a new nose. The interior is upholstered as is the trunk. Pieces from numerous models contributed headlights, mirrors, wheels etc. Thanks for strolling down memory lane!
