Thanks for the kind words fellas. I think she came out pretty nice. Not perfect but a nice daily. Odd time to sell it but, I gotta get back on track with another project. Classic will be here before we all know it.

Btw, didn't you have a badass split slowlow?

I did... Traded it for a fully restored 60 with a 1915cc and a 56 Euro Ragtop oval thats super dry and solid.

Just wanted the 60 for the big engine ( which is now in my bus) And the 56 will hopefully be on the roads this spring!

that car is even sweeter in person, i like how its simple to look at for the most part, but if you take the time to really examine it you keep finding new details. great job Tony. now it just needs a good home.

It has a 4" narrowed beam with CB performance dropped spindles and disc brakes in porsche pattern w/ 195x50 kuhmos.

In the rear, the plates sit at 90 degrees while on jack stands, with 205x55 all season kuhmos with adapters.

I have a set of porsche pattern drilled drums for the rear, but I kinda like the meaty look and wanted to keep it a little spaced out as oldschool lookers.
