Seriously, you should be very proud. She's beautiful and you've got great skills.

Hey, questions if you don't mind:
  1. Will you rewire her yourself? Whose kit if you're using a kit?
  2. Will you bend your own brake & fuel lines? I've no experience but bought Eastwood tools to do mine. Can you please take detailed in-process pix?
  3. Last, will you chrome the hood diagonal braces? I want to but wonder if it will crack the paint when pressuring the sheet metal on re-installation. Will you texture underside of hood?
Thanks!! Shes not perfect but shes mine so im very happy with her defects and all! As for wiring its american auto wire, brake lines and fuel lines are already in place i ben those with a cheap tube bender the brace under the hood will just be semi gloss black like the inner fenders actually under the hood will also be black.
