i couldn't wait.. had to see if the rims that came with the car would fit.. they actually fit well.. front end needs to come down some but i'll get to that.. the rear has to also but puttomng normal shackles should help that..

i'll pull them off this weekend so they don't rust while getting it road worthy..

seems to run good.. just need to find out why its not pulling gas to the carb.. hopefully i'll have time next week to mess with it.. gotta be something stupid..

 
Wheels and paint make a car. But if you have great paint and ugly wheels, everyone will hate it. But if you have ugly paint and the wheels look good, the car still stands out. You simply can't have ugly wheels. Those look nice on your car.

It does look good with those wheels! Makes it look even more worth the effort to rid that beauty of bondo.
 
Welcome to your new early A project Joe, looks good enough to just drive the heck out of it!! And a convertible too!! Nice find!!
 
reminds me of those old dish commercials that were a home makeover spoof
all they did was put a dish on the roof and everyone loved it

this is like a hotrod in a box

Kinda liked the full hubcaps. They give it that supermarket parking lot look that a lot people try to achieve. JK JK JK JK Just kidding. When in doubt, Cragar SS's..
