Good choice with the black bar👍

[@Maine_A_S]

Thanks. I think it fits the car well.

[@billz482]

Definitely the black bar.

[@Maine_A_S]

I think it is the best look. Thanks for watching.

[@timnewman1172]

Watching the photos change, the black virtually disappears... good choice!

[@Maine_A_S]

Thanks. I'm still liking the black. I think it was the right choice for this car.

[@Rottingboards]

I'm also in the middle of new paint job. I'm going all black, no strips...just black. Looks great.

[@Maine_A_S]

Thanks. I agree. I like it simple. Minimal stainless, accents, etc.

[@Mikemm54]

It’s shaping up nicely

[@Maine_A_S]

Thank you.

[@Rottingboards]

Black bar really looks good.

[@Maine_A_S]

Thanks. I think so too

[@Mikemm54]

Black bar definitely the best choice

[@Maine_A_S]

Black looks good to me. 👍

[@Maine_A_S]

Thanks for watching.

[@MrJeep75]

Like the look

[@Maine_A_S]

Thanks

[@Rottingboards]

Those yellow lights look fantastic. I would have had to see to believe it but they go. I have Crowl lights so I think it would be a little overkill if I did this...

[@Maine_A_S]

Thanks. I wasn't sure at first either but I like them.

[@11Burns11]

It is a unique look. I'll know it's you on the road.

[@Maine_A_S]

It is different but I like it.

[@MrJeep75]

Like your choice

[@Maine_A_S]

Thanks

[@1coppertop]

Good choice

[@Maine_A_S]

Thanks

[@fredkaminski3668]

I like the black! I have a few questions, where did you get the drop bar? Did it fit without any modifications to where it mounts to the fenders? Would a stock horn still have enough room to mount under the headlight and not hit the fender?

[@Maine_A_S]

The bar is made by United Pacific. I think I got it on ebay. It fit pretty well. I left the fenders and brackets loose until I had the bar installed. It took a little messing with it for the holes to line up but I didn't have to enlarge or drill any holes.

[@Maine_A_S]

I don't think the horn will fit in the stock location. I am planning to mount mine under the hood. I will include that in a future video.

[@wickedbuilds1491]

Yeah...that's pretty good dude! What are your thoughts on a spreader bar. Normally they run them without the fenders but curious if you could add one with the fenders...maybe trim it up a bit? Nice job!

[@Maine_A_S]

Thanks. I've considered one but like you said, I'd have to shorten it. I might revisit the idea down the road.

[@MrJeep75]

Black would be best

[@dickdaley9059]

Stainless would be my choice. Black body needs all the brightwork available to look elegant. But, not my car. “Hotroddy” is far from an accurate description of this vehicle! Mon ami, Regis, from Lewiston-Auburn used to say “on my car, if it shines, it’s mine!”

[@Maine_A_S]

Thanks for watching and commenting. I'm more o a "less is more" kind of guy when it comes to stainless and chrome. I think the small accents pop more when surrounded with darker colors. That is why I much prefer the 31 radiator shell over the 30 style.
