Re: hey CG!

Here is a chop I have of how I wanted it. But its taking so dang long things keep changing. I dont know if Im going to go with the caps anymore. I am probably going to go with tto's or chrome steelies with no caps at all. Im shooting for a 60s vibe. But who knows where it will turn next lol.

The color is going to be black for sure. Its all painted except for the body shell.

Re: hey CG!

Thanks on the props for the chop guys. The thing about this panel is that Im not even sure If Im going to like it when its done.

It was a purchase I really didnt think over very well. Ive spent way too much money on it to turn back though. I doubt I could sell it as is...Luv I think you can identify with that one.

I would rather have something older. And I do have my eye on a very cool old caddy. Just coming up with the money without touching home type money is gonna be tricky.

Course on the other hand I may just love it when its done. I think I have a good vision of what its going to look like in my head. Then again....LMAO, Im so wishy washy when it comes to cars and trucks its no wonder I dont have one finished sitting in the garage.

Andy,

I finally got a snap shot of my burb that I sold last summer before meeting you guys. I wish I had it back now that I know where I can get parts but my buddy won't sell.

Re: hey CG!

They are stock 68 caps. Pretty hard to come by. I think I just got lucky when I found a set from a board member. Im pretty sure in the picture they are sized a little larger than they really are.

Re: hey CG!

Mark, That seat sure looks nice in that panel. I know what you mean by being wishy wasy. I have about three of everything for my old Chevys, At least thats the joke amongst my friends and family. I cant even decide which car or truck to make nice first, When I think I have it figured out I buy another one. The chop shop panel looks way cool. I think I will have to see the hubcaps before I can make a call on them.
