    While the post car is lighter and stronger than the hardtop, the hardtop just looks so much better. Either way, though the craftsmanship is excellent. I love watching metal fabrication being done well.

    That’s one lovely ‘55. I love everything about it, the paint is gorgeous, the way you got every line on the car perfect. Just everything. The only issue I have is on the production side. The photos were shuffled a bit. One minute we’re watching the man in the final polishing, the next we’re watching them back to bogging the trunk/boot. Anyhow, lovely job. 😊

Because nowadays there’s so many of them on the road it’s not like they’re a rare car anymore and it’s popularity has made it that way. Still it was very nice build to watch.🛠🇺🇸🛠
