Thanks for the info Rich, but those are more of a fancy repop's, I'm looking for more of a used "real McCoy's" set and there out there too (for an arm and a leg).
Thanks again buddy and I hope you can make it here on the 4th of October!

Re: Who's heard of Felix Chevrolet???

For the car guy in So Cal, Felix Chevrolet memorabilia is THE stuff to have. That stuff is highly coveted by the lowrider guys in particular. My only Felix Chevrolet item is my magnetic Felix figurine that rides on top of my rearview mirror.

I'm digging' the truck and how the lettering turned out. It's time for an "altitude" adjustment! What do you have planned? And don't say you aren't sure because we all know better........

Once upon a time I said I would never put the Felix license frames on, I got burned out seeing them everywhere.

Right now about a 6 inch drop, maybe bags later.

Very cool Rene! Look forward to seeing it with an altitude adjustment. Btw, you didn't have me fooled. I read that first post & was trying to figure out why some folks hadn't caught on yet.
