I saw the article and did wonder if it was yours. Looking good there. As it stands with the chop and 2-dooring, it would also work as a gasser.....

My bookmark must have fallen out, I can see no reason why I would de-bookmark this. Thank you for the nudge over on the Photochop thread. I think of all the bits done, one of my favourites has to be the new rear lights.
The whole thing is amazing, gone completely is the slightly awkward and dumpy looking Vanguard and in it's place is this marvel. When done, I will need to find an opportunity to see this in the flesh as it'll be the only car I've seen go from stock, via photoshop and into reality, that and it's going to be pretty damned awesome.

So... this is the only Standard led sled out there I'm guessing. Quite likely to be the only one sporting a V8 too. I hope you're keeping the Standard grille on the front, it would be a shame for that stamp of identity to disappear as it's one of the few good original design features, I think just about everything else that stamps this as being a Standard is gone now.

Wow! This is inspiring stuff, it's looking a thousand times better than I could have imagined. Laying that rear window down has transformed this - it doesn't just look like a car with a roof chop, everything sits so nicely.
Like about 500000000 other people, I'll be following this closely!

I'm so glad someones built this. if i didnt have a 'fullsize' kustom project, id have built something similar myself!
i approve of the 'no compromise' approach to getting the proportions right, its definately why this thing looks so good.

The way it is working out is amazing, can't wait to see it for real. Congratulations. |
