i've decided to do some kustom designin on my '51 Fleetline. i have a few ideas runnin around in my noggin; the only thing that may not happen is the chop. i reckon it could always be a stock hardtop without the "B" pillar though, huh? we'll see about the chop though. it'll also have a white T&R interior the souped-up 6 pop's goin in and it's gonna be as low as i can get it. i'm thinkin it will have 3-flipper caps with WW's. the only thing i haven't decided on yet is the color.

hey Jonas !!! i came up with a different idea for the tailights in my '51. i think i'll start at the bottom of the original tailight depression and just whittle it out, up and around the curve of the top of the fender then mount the lenses flush.
Bill Hines built a custom called "The Bat". it has fins simular to yours but his forms outward curves. i like YOUR DESIGN much BETTER !!!!

like it??? WOOOW, this is GORGEOUS !!! would you mind putting this shot in a Candy Emerald Green also??? i've taken most of the side trim off, the window trim is all that's left. thank you Patrol !!!
you just made my mind up for me. i think i'll keep it unchopped without the "B" pillar. thank you again Patrol, this is really AWESOME and, a big help to see it before it's finished. wish i knew how to do this.
