Default Boys the project is completed...
Some of you may have been keeping track of my project and the time has finally arrived. I debuted it at the Pavilion's here in Phoenix yesterday. Lots of people noticed the body work but when I raised the doors it really got a lot of attention. Of the 50 or so vettes mine was the only Tiger Shark and the only one with Vertical Doors.
