For once I'm glad someone resurrected an old thread because I must've missed this one when it was originally posted. :huh:

It wouldn't have occurred to me to use a Grand Sport-type paint scheme on that car, but wow does it work, especially in that shade of blue. I'd love to see some engine and chassis pictures too, if possible.

Nice work, Thomas!

Really Keen T Bird, I have always liked the 58. My older brother had one of these his was in rough shape. It barley ran when he brought it home...Dad was not happy....The car had been lowered by heating the springs...It was the victim of many "Shade Tree Mechanics". Gary loved it....When I ask why? He simply said "Its a 58 T Bird".....Dad must have liked it more then he let on...He and Gary fixed it up...It was never "Cherry" But "It was a 58 T Bird"...Yours is Awesome.....Here is the ugly version.
