Hate the wheels but everything else is great. Love the way they changed the B pillar and extended the door to match the angle.

It's interesting, now that it is finished, the twotone paint scheme makes it look fairly stock. The amount of modifications is incredible.
WoW!!!!
Beauty!! What's the power plant if anyone knows?
Looks like a Boss 429 Engine.
per the link:
"The people not reading this will be surprised when Bob lifts the hood to reveal a 521-cid version of the Boss Nine engine from Jon Kaase Racing Engines. These are built to make 800 hp and are offered with a carburetor, EFI, blower, or stack injection; Bob's going for an eight-stack version. A six-speed automatic, maybe from Gear Vendors, will be column shifted."
Very cool, I like how it looks with the 55-57 Thunderbird door handles. Looks factory, but mest have been a fair amount of work.
Looking forward to seeing this car run and drive! Beautiful.
Here is builder Steve Stroppe with a great walk-around showing the mods at SEMA...

Color combo is close to my Country Sedan...Colors on mine are actually Sunset Orange Metallic (2004 Hummer color) with Chevy Truck White White with very slight pearl for lots of contrast...
They did some nice subtle metal work on that body..
