"This one will be a hit anywhere it goes."

That's an understatement Bill. Even with the glimpses you can tell the care is a beauty. A head turner with the power to back it up!

So here's the picture of the headlamp.
This is an old one that I have laying around.
The new ones are exactly the same.


Should do the trick.
I'm sending some special bulbs with it that you're going to like a lot.

Yeah I think we can make that work.
You guys! I can't believe nobody noticed the wheels. Just not sexy enough I guess, but take another look... Oh and don't give me too much credit for those flares, Terry's guys have uncountable hours in making them look right, all I did was rough them in. But if you'll notice they do bear a remarkable resemblance to the ones on my roadster after all was said and done.
Bill, was that the day you fell off the wagon? My memory on the details is a little dim. Well to help ease the pain of the memory here's another shot:



More to come...

Now you move up topside, is that a hint of a breast I see there, almost looks like a fancy Buick GS air cleaner.

Yes, Jim I noticed the newly painted wheels, just didn't mention them. Is it paint or powder coating? I figured that was the reason for the new tires, they had the old rubber off to do the wheels and just couldn't see putting those old things back on the car.

Fell off the wagon? I never was on the wagon, but I did slip off Pete's lift while I was welding the inner fender panel and would up on my butt on the floor. No damage to Pete's concrete floor though, just bruised my pride a bit. It was later that night after dinner at Hooters we got together in Rick's kitchen and really proceeded to ease my pain with some Bass and Irish whiskey. No doubt that the memory is a bit fuzzy, mine is also that way. From what I remember we did have a good time though, Rick, myself, and the Blackwood brothers.

Great color match!

This car will end up on some magazines for sure and not just BV8.org.

Well Done!

No seriously, go back and REALLY look at them.

JB

Personally, I would leave the front spolier alone for the time.

It ain't broke...don't fix it when there are so many other things to get done on the car.

FWIW - YOMV

MG centers,nice touch!!
Great work Gentlemen!!!!!
Cheers to all of the talent that went into this!!!!!

It's looking fantastic. From the teaser photo's so far, looks like Terry's team did a great job!
Great job everybody!

Pete

As someone who has seen the car up close and personal I have to say this car is perfect. Look down the side and it is absolutely straight as an arrow. The flares are matched and look like they belong there.
We got it "back to the barn" installed the engine and tranmission etc with NO DINGS. That paint job is not to be believed.
You got a winner there guys!

If "the devil is in the details" then this car will be pure hell!

Here we go!

Car Porn alert! Wow, that is terrific. I'm glad we have photos of the entire build, no one would believe what we started with compared to what it is now. When we get all the glass and trim on the car it's going to be fantastic.

Terry and his boys really made a swan from an ugly duckling.
................This calls for a celebratory swig of suds tonight!

A silk purse from a sows ear!!!!
NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've been thinking about the Batwing.

I believe it would look best and stand out if painted either Flat Black or Gloss Black.

A plus side of this is that the ROADMASTER emblems will really stand out.

We need a little contrast.
