Sixties Sam Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Nice, clean build! I love the '49's! The chrome side strip really looks good. It breaks up that big slab side nicely! Great! Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anit looks good too on multiple carbs into a fule block. I'm told there's other colors but I haven't gone out shopping yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voljeepx Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Shoebox Fords are very cool, and the good part about 'em is no matter what you do to 'em, they still look good! Color and stance on yours is great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyjim Posted September 17, 2009 Author Share Posted September 17, 2009 Thank you for the positive feedback fellas. My head is swelling. Actually, I just try to do the very best I can on every model. My mind says do one thing but I don't have the abilities to do some of the things I'd like, so I just keep plugging along. But thank you again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
