I personally think the thinner white wall defines this car...

[BobT-47P15]

I agree, Tim. Sometimes the narrow ones are OK and look better.

[Niel Hoback]

I disagree, respectfully. I like the wide whites better.

[PatS....]

I don't really care how wide they are, the car looks great!!!

Nice! i was looking at the build pics and see you went with a clip, the only thing i would have like to seen done to it was had some fish plates on the rails, a little more strength to it. interesting motor mounts, mopar to a chevy plate. how does it ride and handle compaired to stock? I think I like the wide whites better also. now go drive that badboy!

Doc, just a build....not my car:(

[dezeldoc]

Ohhh!

[pflaming]

That is a NEW car! What does a restoration / modification like that cost? It sure is a beauty!

How about some updated pictures of your car?

[Frank Elder]

Don,

Sad to say I have not made much progress lately other than a new gas tank and finishing my 6 volt rewiring.

I have no excuses or sad stories to cover up my lack of work being completed...just a slow lane kind of guy I guess.

The coupe runs fine and it's developed a leak on the trunk seal, but other than that I am content, not really sure if the car should be shiney or leave it the way it was found.

I do really enjoy the vast knowledge of this site,but as ususal I will take life at the pace that can be enjoyed, not hurried, but fun.
