I was trolling around looking good examples of 1950's Ford resto-mods and happened across this car for sale.  Super nice with lots of photos showing some very cool custom touches.  Worth looking at the gallery for sure!  Asking price is only $104,000.00

We had posted a you tube video of that car back a few years ago...had it saved, but then the video got deleted by the owner. Awesome car...I think it looked even better in the you tube video, in fact I wasn't sure it was the same car. They should have posted more pics on the custom sheetmetal in the engine compartment. In the video, also, it was outdoors and the paint looked darker.

even though I am much more a 'period' and traditional guy, that car sure is mighty fine ! loved it from first seeing it. great color/interior combo.
that is how Detroit's cars should look today.

That Steering wheel is like a mile away from the dash, definitly not built for a fat guy.
