LOL...Yep...Donald Trump like negotiations happened at Pac West yesterday...I got a funny story that goes with it, let's just say that the sales man didn't know how to do math too well.
NCN will be available for everyone's viewing pleasure Classic weekend.

I just picked up a '57 vert that is bamboo...it pretty much has the same thing in the same spot | Yustrn wrote: | | a-train wrote: | Nice work Yustrn.
Inspiring and I love the color! |
Thanks...
Hey does your vert have any writting underneath where the back window would be with a grease pin?
I'm just wondering if all verts had this or this is something they started later?

Once you post a pic in the gallery, double click on it to make it larger. At the top there will be a little box that says "Forum code" with a bunch of text that starts with [IMG] blah blah blah blah blah [/img] copy that link and paste it in your reply here.

thanks on the "post a pic"
The car is not here..I have it in storage right now, waiting it's "turn" next time I go I'll take some pics. I think there is a small section of the carpet. I'll take a look.
Near as I can tell my car is original paint and very original and complete. The Odometer reads 37,000 which I think is real for the shape of the car and all. It has been in storage for nearly 30 years and is an original Canadian car. |

I'm back in town to we're getting back to business over at The Resurrection Project tonight...started to convert the pan to RHD tonight....after a lot of debate we thought this would be the easiest way to go and give us the best results.
Now I just got to clean up the welds a little with the grinder....and then do the other side....
More pics a little later
