Re: [PROJECT] Laidout53 Part II

Thanks guys!


I got the other side of the center section fab tonight. Need to get one more driveline hoop like the rear for the tranny mount and then it will be done and on to mounting the fuel cell...

Re: [PROJECT] Laidout53 Part II

Thanks everyone!

Noonzor- the cab will be chopped (having decided if i wanna do a custom dash yet?) and the bed im going to get new box sides. The rear fenders need to be raised 2". The front clip well get frenched headlights. Theres some other mods but you all will have to wait to see, as im not sure they will work yet.....

Re: [PROJECT] Laidout53 Part II

What's up Justin? Maybe you said before and I forgot or maybe not... But what do you do for a living? You've got some serious talent! Fame is looking great by the way! Can't wait to see what you have in store for the rest of the '53...
