Here are some pics. There are lots of hours in this.



The gas tank stickes into the interror. Mistry of the cut out interior solved.

I like the custom work, the only thing is... with that rear panel, the car will be and will most certainly look mych shorter with the bubble glass all the way to the back. I once thought about grafting on an early chrome bumper rear like that and clean it (no bumpers) but the shorter look is what kept me from doing it. It might be a real cool thing afterall :) Nice work.
