So here's my new 63 Vert. The car is currently at Buddy Hales getting cleaned up and having some upgrades while it's in there. Buddy is detailing the wheels, the backs of the bumbpers, fabricating a custom air plenum for the carb, anodizing the washers, new beam, yada, yada, yada... I'll post pictures as they come. The idea is to have it done by Eureka.

Nice looking car Elliot. The upgrades should make it even better.
