Well, I haven't the money for aftermarket hotrod parts, for the most part at least. Because of the rarity of my car, I'm basicly doing a resto/ hotrod of the later 1950's. Stock engine/ trans, except fenton headders, and an offenhauser tri power intake and smithy's mufflers with eco can tips, will have baby moon caps with painted rims, single stage, non metallic medium dark purple and purple and white vinyl interior. I'v also been thinking about building a T bucket as my next project, been coming up with ways to use old parts, and new parts, like the body and frame and probably suspension and rear end. I'v been thinking about how it might be unique to buy a cheap no passenger door body, then buy 2 of the glass in passenger door and frame kits, put the passanger door in then, modify the other to work on the drivers side, then because clearence is an issue with a steering colum, get an old fold away colum out of a t bird or such, and mod it to fold in instead of fold out, that would be more of an old style approach than calling a place like ididits and have them special make a fold away colum that folds in.You don't know what you've got til it's gone
