Color is House of Kolor BITTERSWEET, engine is a 396, rear end came from the Coupester, scratch built front axle, wheel from a die cast car and other extra stuff from the Vampire Van.
It's got a pretty heavy looking front end and depending on the look you're going for (which I don't know) I'd lower that front end just a hair more than the back end....my thought....that body work is great!
Don't know if you have made your springs for you shocks yet buy my wife makes jewelry and she uses this wire called "Memory Wire". You can get it in different thicknesses and get it at almost any bead store or Joanns . It's almost like piano wire. Glad to hear that you and your family are all OK!

I wouldn't change anything....if your dad is alive make a diorama that you like and give it back. If he has past away make something that will make you remember him through his model parts....
