Everything's looking good. What do you plan to do with the front fender emblems, if anything? Will you contrast the background of the lettering? It's hard to see in that photo what kind of condition they're in.

tpimuncie 10-26-2015 04:15 PM

Re: My 1959 apache project

:ennyd: "She's lookin good, you know she's lookin so good. She's looking good, just like you knew that she would!:lol:

Hey, any particular reason you went with black inner feeders instead of body color? I've always planned on body color for mine but yours looks so good. It doesn't exactly look like a full gloss - though that may be the lighting in your photos, but definitely doesn't look flat or even semi gloss. What'd you do there?

Lol thanks!

Want to run these 60-66 rear fillers to close up the gap.

Fantastic build!!!
Can you share with us where you got these rear filler panels? Did you shorten the bumper brackets or change them in anyway?

Keep sharing! Awesome thread!
