James2 Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 (edited) Thanks guys, thought I'd try this next... At this point I think I need to mock up the complete car to see how it is working together? Edited May 2, 2018 by James2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldcarfan27 Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 After seeing it set up, I have to say I like it! Very unique, yet very retro. Looks like it was pulled right from Rod & Custom in the early 60s. The theme flows together, front to back. The wheels, the stance, the attitude everything works! I like how you used the 58 Chevy headlight brows over the grille, good idea. Keep it up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldcarfan27 Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Your intake looks good, just run some fuel lines across it like the photo and it'll work great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrKerry Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 James, that is looking killer!!!! Love the idea on the grille surround. Kind of where I thought it was going to go initially when you started putting the 58 on the rear deck!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
