So, now that we’ve had the car a while, we know pretty much what we’re dealing with.

The motor is actually a Chevy 327, not a 350 like the sticker on the valve cover states.

Nobody has a problem with this, but its nice to know what we have. We’ve scavenged up quite a few parts from other builds. We’ve got a new gas tank from the ‘38 Chevy we never ended up using. A Ron Francis wiring kit, a hood from a ‘32 pickup, some seats from a ‘84 Mercedes and quite a bit more.

Build quality is as good as we noted it to be previously. No complaints.

Now we just some time, warmer weather (Yep, we’re California wussies), and a bit of cash…

Bob called the other day and told me he got the car…

Here it is being dropped off.

This one’s gonna be a nice ride.

A famous hot rod interior shop in Santa Clara offered this project for sale. Apparently a trade was executed for this car and, like so many, the project stalled.

It was available for some time and they kept dropping the price cause nobody would buy it.

Not everything here is what he would have done if I started from scratch, but what is here is really, really well done.
