I agree but its not my money and the final decision was his, I just build them. He did listen to me one a lot of things but he was stuck on the black wheels. I also lost out on these stupid stick on emblems on the front fenders, to me they just look cheap. But most everything else is top shelf.

Project "SwitchBlade" Worked till 2 in the morning last night. Finally got the wheels and tires on along with a bunch of other stuff. The pic doesn't really show the wheels to good on the car but they do look great. Took it out on the 1st test drive at 1 in the morning, all I can say is WOW...

I am almost positive the correct wheels and tires are going on today:rolleyes: We have been working very long hours 12 to 14 a day and it is really starting to come together. While it may not look like a big change it is.

Ya, I can't wait to get them off and get the real wheels and tires on. Hope it happens today. By the way, all those are,are GM space saver spares. They are cool looking wheels but not on this.:rolleyes:

These are 2 that we have done here in the last year. The Red 62 is a Caddy LSA blown/intercooled and the Silver 65 Malibu we are just now finishing is a LS-3 with a bit hotter cam. These motors are amazing with the power/reliability and fuel mileage ya just can't beat them. This LS-3 has a...

It is getting very close. Should have the seats today. We have named it the Switch Blade, for many reasons but the dam thing keeps changing every time we put something else on it, pain in the back!!! Bolt another part on and it changes how other parts fit in a big way, just crazy what it does.[S...

Thanks, just wondering because of S.S. work you have been doing. I have never checked into what is needed for S.S. welding with a mig but have to soon as I need to do a bunch of it myself. I have done it with regular wire but now I need to be able to polish it.[;)

Are you using a Tig or Mig?:confused:

Yes if the bars aren't rotten and they appear not to be. Let me know when you get a chance to get back there, no big hurry. Thanks.

I love that Buick grill!!!!!! Any chance it could be had? I would like something like that for my 52. The bumper is great for your car and looks to be in good shape.

I just build everybody else's cars as mine sits and waits for me to get to it. Sucks but I gotta make a living.

On top of the car projects I have been working on my house. Gutted this room because there was never any insulation in the 3 exterior walls. New sheetrock/insulation/wiring/trim and hardwood floors.

Thanks guys, I know its a bit to shiny and way to nice for my tastes also but its what he wants and believe me its just going to get crazier. The interior parts are just starting to come in and we will install as they show up. I was hoping to have it on the real wheels and tires today but time...

Can't help finding the guy but it was at the Syracuse Nationals last year, thought I had a pic but can't seem to find it. Great looking ride.

Love a 54 as a Kustom not a gasser. I was looking for a 54 HT when I stumbled on my 52, would really rather be doing a 54. Kustoms don't have tilt front ends........ chop it drop it French it pancake it but please no tilt!:rolleyes:. We need some pics of your progress, love a full bodied...

Top is on, the body is going together, glass is in, and its running and man it sounds soooo good. Have 12 more days to finish it for the Syr Nats.

It is coming together slow but sure,alot of wiring that needs to bee totally hidden. We hope to have it running this weekend.

I made one from a old Lugwig bass drum peddle (Speed King) and the linkage from the 65 Malibu that I am working on for my 52. Works great and took about 20mins.

I hope! I wish? I don't know but I really want to:(
