Yea that would be cool. Except I might not make it to the meet, I'll probably be out with the girlfriend.

YES! That is coming out sweeeeet! It's one of my fav cars of all time. I love the Victoria! I really do. I want to own a 1:1 someday. I think flat grey is cool, go for it. I look forward to more pics of this sweet ride.

Hey bro, bring her along also. We do have girls in the club!!!!!!!!

As for being in the weeds, why yes it will stay down. Just finished filling in the gas door and shaved the locks and door handles. The gas tank will be a small whiskey barrel of some sort I think. This is suppose to be a quick build, but as I get lost in the ol' skool rodz, it turns into a project!! I have now decided to go with the frenched head/taillights and no chop what so ever. If it does get a chop, it will be very little.(pics)

good job so far, going to be awesome when finished

Sweet as H*LL!!:sunglasse

Not too much progress, the H-D dealership I work for is building another one, so been working alot. The only thing I have done is paint the body flat black and the chassis, yes it will get the rust treatment, and ratted interior.

Looks really good.

Yeah I am going to use the flattie that come with the kit. Its going to be pretty much box stock. I will wire, plumb, and weather it out.
