The color is fine, probably won’t be up much anyway.
The top fits like a glove, I’m happy with the outcome.
I’m quite surprised with the head room, plenty of room to spare.

I’ve finally gotten around to installing the Posi Rear in my ‘54. It’s out of a 1962 and has a 3:55 gear. If anyone is going to do this swap, you’re going to need a few things. The backing plates, rear emergency brake cables and frame brackets, strut bars and their frame brackets and you will also need the spring/shock plates and the U-Bolts. All these parts can be had in various vendor catalogs if a donor car is not available. Here are some pics.

Rear parking brake brackets and rear strut frame brackets welded up, all painted and pretty.
I couldn’t be happier with the outcome, my 54 is so much more stable.
FUN STUFF.
