espo Posted April 15 Posted April 15 Very aggressive looking body with the chopped top and dark color. The flathead engine looks well detailed and right at home here. Great looking interior finishes and color. Like the stance with the big & little tires. 2
Chuckyg1 Posted April 16 Posted April 16 Super sinister deuce. It's perfect in every way. The right color, a bad, (good), stance and a classic chop. Great tire/wheel combo. The interior is simple but well detailed. Yeah.. I like this one. 2
Pierre Rivard Posted April 16 Posted April 16 Lot's of work on this one and it shows. Engine is gorgeous, roof chop is seamless, stance is mean and no chrome finish looks perfectly sinister. What's not to love! I've never done a hot rod but this is providing the greatest of incentives. 2
Flatout Posted April 17 Posted April 17 Nice Coupe Phil! You definitely captured the “Rolling Bones “ vibe 😎 2

You definitely captured the “Rolling Bones “ vibe 😎 Thanks everybody for your comments. I am really pleased you like my Deuce 5-W Hi-Boy and thought you might like to see my inspiration. There are some great photos of the Rolling Bones Hot Rod on Bring a Trailer where it sold for a quarter of a million a few years ago. 3
