I like the fact that you can tell the rear license plate was dangling by one bolt. I love that patina!

Wait a minute! Did I read that correctly that said it may be a little too low. Its never low enough :mrgreen:

Looks good bro, I have to replace the pans on mine once I am done with all the welding on the body.
