Gotta give the guy a break. After all..., it is only half done. I will be looking forward to see it once it's completed.

BTW, the glass is always full. It may be half liquid..., but the other half is full of air.

the only thing I don't like on the care is the emblem on the side of the car. looks out of place. But I do like custom cars.

Meh. Does nothing for me, but to each their own. I'd much rather have a bone-stock '65 any day.

Beautiful craftsmanship displayed. I really like the throwback C1 seat style incorporated into the interior with the modern dash style. Good on you for doing what you wanted with your car.

The flush glass is what GM should have done when they built the C2. I actually prefer the FIA style headlights but the high intensity probes on your car blend in well.

A great work of art, I like the overall image but not the headlights although I can't say what might have worked better.

I would think the idea is that most of that 100 gallons of resin ended up on the shop floor as sanding dust in pursuit of the final outcome.

A stocker looks better to me.
