That really did come out well. I followed some of your cross-country exploits in this car on the Spridgets mailing list. You do impressive work.

Without question those are great looking brake lights. The factory should have used them.

Actually I want your plans for the wooden dash, I have a 1970 that would look great with a dash like that. I can fab and make stuff but design work is not my strength..Please

The rear of that B looks right. Not overdone, just a bit understated, and the Bugeye hood. What a fine ride.
