Blair,

Lovely shoebox! And fantastic background! Have any posts/pics on that buildup? Would love to do something similar for my slammed shoebox!

Love the look of the car with the selected engine parts and rims!

I have been working on lowering the ride on my custom '49 coupe. I sectioned my body and I made a pie cut thru the wheel well to lift through rear frame up so it wouldn't hang below the rear fenders. What parts did you use for the front suspension? I want to loose the axle thru the engine block BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH and put in maybe AMT '49 Mercedes suspension and steal the lower red rear end as well. Here is the pic in my post of my chassis so far:

Also, I think I need to level out the gas tank as well.
