Excellent work. You should be very proud of how nice this all turned out.
Happy motoring and enjoy it in good health.
QUOTE=DAN70;1594578444]Body and interior are driver quality. Gauges rebuilt but not restored.
Frame and drivetrain is all new or rebuilt. A neat little 4 spd shifter. It's just a 60's HOT ROD....

Dan you have one outstanding looking car that you have restored and or built. One simple question, will you be installing a radio in the car? I had one that I had restored and had in my first 54 Corvette but I never turned it on, NEVER. I was just to excited driving the car and trying to watch all the dumb dumbs around me to listen to it. People would look at me and not pay atteneion to where they were driving just watching my car. So if you install one I don't think you would listen to it like I did not listen to mine. Just wondering?

I've got light and electric. I have to admit I was worried, re wiring the whole car to 12 volt. I use Lectric Limited, 55-57 harness. Easy and no problem. FUN STUFF....
