I quess sometimes it's good to build fast without too much thinking.

I added some PE- screwheads to the SF-sign.

( SF is the old Finnish metal sign telling you that this car is from Suomi - Finland.

Nowadays it should be FIN- sticker but this is oldschool ride anyway. )

That kind of white on black- licence plate was used here on pre- 1972 cars. In newer cars those colors were opposite and now we have blue area with EU- symbol on the left side on black on white- plates.

The 57 chevy is one of my favorites...Yours is one also....I don't know how you did it...But I like it a lot... looks so long and low...The Paint is just right...One Tuff 57. She is so nice...So not nice.

Normally when I've seen tri-fives chopped, it didn't work, but this looks killer. I think it's the complete package working together: the severe drop, the chop, the primer, the rims, and I'm really digging those pinstripe whitewalls.

Another nice ride Jarkko. I'm always impressed with your builds. Being of Finnish decent myself, I really appreciate the learning a about the SF sticker and the license plates.

5 days?!? It takes me 5 days to open a box! lol That chop and drop makes the 57 look looong. Killer job on that snapper!
