Re: Dutch 1955 build
Fuel is kind of expensive to be running all those V8s over there isn't it? I'm sure those old Chevy's (and Vette's) turn some heads compared to most of the little cars! Love the build and keep up the good work!

Re: Dutch 1955 build
Coming along VERY nice. Fuel line look great have you got a close up of the clips you are using? They look super clean.
