39 Plymouth coupe

As promise in the presentation thread, I will post a lot of pics of the cars that I build.

I don't have a picture of my friend's Plymouth at the arrival in workshop but it was completly dismounted.

I don't post text between pictures because it's copy/past from a french forum and I removed the text.
It's very very long for me, with my english to translate all but if you have questions, don't hesitate and I will do my best to answer you

Are you serious or is it a joke ?
Here in Europe, it's known... it's a comic (I think it's the good translation in English)
