I took a break for a while and did this fun build to change my mind. Still have some issues to deal with but i figured I'de post tis one for you huys to see. Chopped the top down to about 10 inches of windshield, Z'd the frame fron and back dropping the car 6 inches, replaced the 4 banger with small block chevy, made the carburator pipes out of aluminum tubing, and rusted the heck out of it using combination of Grey, black, Teal, Red paints,and lots of earth, rust, black, grey powder pastels.

I really like the paint finish, and the exposed welds give it a lot of character as well.
