Joker Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 The true Alexander Bros. custom is a 55 and the kit is 56. I won the kit as a door prize at the recent M.A.M.A. NNL. It came with the optional custom pieces for the Victorian. First thing I did was scribe..scribe..scribe. (thanks Cruz) Opened the roof ,trunk and front grill. Added the front and rear pans.I got the diamond tuft buckets and center console from a fellow R.A.M.S. member (thanks Rick). The front buckets swivel and the rear are stationary. 36 Ford white walls and parts stash 5 spokes. This pic is from Rik Hoving Fotki site (thank Rik) lots of history pics.

Joker Posted May 28, 2012 Author Share Posted May 28, 2012 Thanks fellas.. Some interior work and trunk work. penciled in the pattern on the rear tray and broke out the #11 X-Acto added three diamonds to the dash ...just for giggles Not a nuts and bolts replica of "The Victorian by the Alexander Bros." but more of a tribute custom.
