Re: "Project Orangepeel" 52 A.D
great fab work, I always wonder about raising the front lights a little on an AD, and there it is! I even wonder about adding a slice lengthwise across the top to tilt the fenders out a little at the top so they slope back towards the wheel as they go down, front and rear, if you need any more ideas to visualize for me haha.

I forgot what are you doing with the paint on this beast?

Re: "Project Orangepeel" 52 A.D
