Trim looks great. I also like the color and finish.

Great looking wagon. I also have a soft spot for the mid '50's Fords and especially '57's having owned a few back when. Really like the clean overall look of your wagon and you mentioned going too black painted wheels. That was the way I ran my base Mainliner '57 Ford two door. I had shaved the hood and front bumper as you have. The car was painted a GM commercial shade of white. The wheels were a rattle can gloss black with the '60 Ford small hub caps and in the mid '60's the real narrow white walls of the day looked good. Would like to see any improvements you make to this wagon in the future.

Beautiful looking paint finish and like the wheels done to match. The open hood looks better than a scope.

Great looking paint colors and finish. The chrome trim is all cleanly done.

Looks like the original builder spent some time working those headers.

Your description is similar to more than a few vehicles I have owned. I think having had to make do with some really bad vehicles that were about all we could barely afford made us appreciate our vehicles as we moved on in life.

Consider very quietly looking around in your industry to see what other options are out there. Sometimes companies are attracted to the new shinny penny and don't appreciate those that have been a hard-working team player for a company. Don't jump until you see if their new guy carries the load so to speak. Should something that you're sure would be better presents itself you can always talk to the company about what has come available and politely let them know you have come to realize there is no future for you with their organization based on you being passed over.

Great looking paint work, like the two-tone colors. I'll have to remember your save on the dashboard. The wide whites compliment the overall look.

Amazing looking paint treatment. Like how you are able to adjust the ride height for display. The chrome trim all looks cleanly done. Funny how the stock wheel cover option looks like a specialty wheel on this.

Like the base 4-cylinder engine.

Pepper you say? I remember guys claiming that eggs would work, I wasn't about to try it. There was a product on the market that claimed to have some sort of egg product as part of its make up. Lasted long enough for me to get home before the upper tank seem let go again.

Beautiful looking paint treatment. Like the body lines of the basic vehicle and wish we had something like that in 1:1 that we could buy here. Excellent interior and engine detailing.

Beautiful looking paint finish and color. Like the body kit and the wheels.

Great looking interior and body colors.

You should cast this convertible top, not seen anything close to this in the aftermarket.

Amazing detailing and add on features.

Back when the price of a good used '68 thru '72 Nova started to get out of hand many were picking up the '73 and later big bumper Novas and grafting the earlier nose on them. The tip-off is the shape of the rear side windows.

Used to work in a Toyota dealership when the '83's came out. The ASC salesman got us to take a consignment on a new '83 Celica with the conversion on it. They might be the only place to get an exact replacment top.

Someone somewhere may have taken a swan dive off of a bike without a helmet. That ground you see moving under you when riding is going faster and is harder than you think.

Both builds look great and show a different style. Paint work on both looks great and the trim is all cleanly done. Like the wheels on both as well.

Beautiful looking paint finish and color. The equipment looks like a track ready SCCA weekend warrior. Like the "Daisy" style American wheels.

Beautiful looking paint color and finish. The "Thunder Bolt" style hood just looks right on a hot Ford. Any pictures of the engine and interior?

Beautiful looking finishes and cleanly detailed. Great looking opening door and trunk.

Showing pictures of the modifications to the basic kit helps to fully appreciate everything you have done. The paint color and finish are smoother than anything GM has produced. Great attention to details everywhere you look on this build.

Great looking color and like the smooth body lines. The optional LaSalle style grill looks good here.
