Re: My Blue 1957 build
Ok..... my hood had 3" taken out of it and it was just dropped off at the paint shop with the rest of my 57. My dads is the 58 that was blasted and is in primer that has a long road ahead. The custom pickup is another customers at the shop that has the 55-56 hood that is also lowered.

Re: My Blue 1957 build
Few shots of the hood on the truck. Should be done with lining up the body panels by the end of the week and then it comes apart so i can clean up my frame, but here is what everyone wants........PICTURES

Re: My Blue 1957 build
No worries. I know how busy things can get. I've missed posts in my thread before and then caught then and wondered how I missed it. Thanks again btw. Always look forward to seeing your progress.
