Hood Ornament

Know a Chromer? This baby needs to take a dip.

Rear Quarter

The sheetmetal was changed on the lower rear of the quarters.

No Vent Window

Slight custom body mod by removing the vent window and installing one sheet.

Taillamp Bezel

Need to get new bezels for the taillamp lens.

VIN TAG

For reference.

Nice Ford(s)! I'll bet that Fairlane is quick with that 390 in it! Nice Garage!

Thanks Craig! I had a blast last night creating my garage. The information here is more detailed than that on my own site. One suggestion would be to add a Wish List tab like you have for Drivetrain, Chassis, etc. I saw you took off the whites on your Bonnie, and I am looking to add some on my ride. Next I will add my 04 Harley Road King Custom, and shots of my actual garage. An ever changing museum of sorts.
