Dragline Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Those wheels really work on that car. Gorgeous, and I'm no 50's car guy by any stretch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowlife ! ! Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Lots of little touches on this make it stand out. I really like the engine compartment, and the bumper work. But I agree why the big steering wheel at a weird angle ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
