Thanks for the compliments.

Its a small decklid spoiler. When it is painted it will be so subtle that a lot of people wont even notice it. The rear truck needed a small touch, because it was so boring without it.

Thanks for the complements. Troy and his crew are the best when it comes to these cars. If you want to see perfection then you gotta check out "first love" It won the ridler award last year and is on another level. Nothing will touch that level of fab work for years.

Heres another picture, looks great from this angle.

He (Troy) is my favorite builder just by a pinch... Foose is a very close second for me... Troy just builds cars exactly the way I would if I had his ability... I'm looking forward to your updates on the project...
