Re: 68 project

Never realized you could get that stuff in silver. Cool idea. That will make a nice contrast.

Dang them boards came out purdy. And I would have to agree the pics are awesome but in person it is breath taking. You have a master piece my friend something to be proud of. I have enjoyed seeing it go from frame rails to roller.

Re: 68 project

Thanks fellas, yes Robert it has come a long way in a year. This time last year the frame was leaned against the wall in the storage building at my house and no clue how I would get it all together a I didn't even really have the space to work on it properly. I now feel I will actually get to drive it once again
