51 chevy

I wanted it to look like the roofs been sanded back to bare metal with grinding disks, still have to clear it. Also gonna go hot six insted of a belly buton (sbc cause everyone has one) . On the white will be some faded (as in aged) scallops, not too sure about wheels and tyres yet tho probably old school looking.

Looks promising

That's cool - make sure it sits real looooowwww!

did these a while ago then put back in box,dug it out again want to get it done.

Kewl beans.

Nice old clunker. Like Bryce says make sure it sits low. Standard steel wheels with chrome trims would suit this baby I reckon?

Looks good mate

The roof is awesome. Good work.
You sure you didn't fit a metal one?

Looking good buddy.

thanks guys. need opinions quick as this ones going on a road trip tomorrow to the kumeu classic car and hotrod festival Spats (covers over back wheels) or not?


This is as low as I can go

interior shots

I say no spat's , since it's got the aged and being worked on look I think the spats would be one of the first things to be lost/taken off .

Keep the skirts, they add what's required to make a cool ride really Kool!

umm thanks guys. While I really respect carps knowledge and opinion on cars of this style ,I dont actually like them and think they detract from the lines of the paint. #$#*#*^$#()()

Leave the spats off............personally I don't think they suit anything with a forward rake, drop the ass to the pavement and they will look sweet though

well your obviously not trying hard enough

HELP! What did you do Paul ? I've just modified stock suspension as much as phisically possible. Didnt really want to channel it at this stage

well I ended up sectioning the interior a little,pretty happy with where it is now



as you can see I still have to age this side of the car , no motor or box in at the moment

Lookin' real good there Brett, the stance looks much lower.
Luv the tin roof.
