You may recall that the owner of this two door wagon was on the FORUM when this wagon was being built. He was looking for '57 OEM AC dash vents.
I saw this car at the Street Rod Nationals several years ago in Louisville. At that time, I was told that it was owned by the guy that owns ARP Bolts. He may still own it.....I don't know.
Regardless of who owns it, it is a very special build, with a lot of attention to details, that most observers would never recognize.

That would have been the 50th SRN event.  That car has so many subtle changes to it they will make your head swim!
B pilar, fins, head light bezels, grill and of course the dash just to name a few.  In addition to what was posted here there was a TV show (don't remember which one) that featured a bunch of the work that made the changes look like they were there from the beginning.  Super nice car....

I saw on a facebook posting that Pat Fleishman, aka Suede57 here, rebuilt the Paxton supercharger.

I just saw that on a YouTube video that was describing the car,  Pat Fleishman, among others was listed with a "special thanks"! Way cool!

Last Friday I took advantage of a one-day break in the weather and went on a 650 mile road trip in my Outback. Beautiful day in New Mexico. I saw a Bald Eagle soaring in a canyon. Made the day!

2 degree actual temp, windy, light snow. Wind chill in the -20's. Not suppose to warm up until Friday, but still under freezing.That's colder than a lot of places up north.
About 3 weeks ago, we had temps in the mid 80's for 3 days...weird.

Well here in the past 4 weeks we have set several record highs for the date and the all time low. 7 degrees to several 84 degree days! 7" of snow to boot! Supposed to be in the mid 20's tonight. What a ride...

One of the guys who does weekend work on Willie's Roadhouse, Prime Country and is a regular on Bluegrass Junction lives in Calgary. He was talking the other day about temps up there at something like 50 below Fahrenheit. That'll make yer teeth rattle!

Mail call action.  Scored some trim sets to find a clean set for the hardtop
It was like 10 bucks a piece.  Got lucky most are straight.
