    I live in Branson, Mo. Occasionally i see a really well done car. The guy has a 1950 Ford front and back grafted to a late 1980s Taurus. It's so well done it looks like it came that way.

      Yes i still have my car. I just replaced my tires with new 2-3/4 inch whitewall tires and the air cond is now working. I haven't thought about selling it, but i guess if the offer was over the top i might let it go. Have you seen all the video's on the car ? There is alot of custom work done to this car. This car drives great and is quick. I am located in southern ontario.

      @@1998dodgejd I caught that on the video when you said you saved it. Chad does some nice stuff, I would just like to see him finish his projects. I understand time restraints and things like you taking 5 years to do your ‘49 Ford, but I am sure you have a full time job and that’s not the only thing you do. This is what Chad does for a living and he can’t finish a project? I would just about bet this car doesn’t get finished either. Anyway, I just wanted to let you know I appreciate the job you done and just love your car. Don’t listen to other assholes, they are jealous they don’t have the skill or too lazy to have such a nice ride as yours. God bless, and happy holidays!
