So there I am surfing the net and holy crap its a done up zephyr wow!! He, he, he!! the doors, are dam near cut in the same place I did mine. OK, hes got great taste, I almost want to send him a beer, but its in the UK. Been trying to get a hold of the guy. Wanted to know how he did the rear quarter wheel well lips, it looks really good. did he shape them up from scratch, did he cut them out of something else ?
He got the look of the car spot on! not too crazy about the headlights, love the grill and tail lights.

I decided to mock up everything I could, while looking for work, built a few motors over the winter for bill money. ran out of mig gas last week,
I pulled out some taping screws, so I could at least get some tin work done, not bad for a few days and couple of cans of paint, talk about budget, one six pack of cold ones.
and seemed to figure out how to get some life out of my old camera by jerry rigging the switch with scotch tape.
built the custom shifter, its going to have a lever with a cable to operate the gating system, I have worked out, (let you know how that works when its working).. The handle is stainless it will be polished. left everything rough till its built and working. the top of the handle will be a pistol grip style with purple hart wood. part of the trans tunnel will be removable to get at the bell housing bolts, its a tight fit. I like a challenge.
