Bumpers done and headliner installed.

If anyone is following my 1957 big block Custom project, I finally got my bumpers back and the headliner installed.  The link is at http://www.lakefrontflorida.com/57ford/headliner-bumpers.html.  Anyone want to buy a home in Central Florida?  It's suppose to be in the low 70s tomorrow.  We give free lifetime snow removal with every home we sell!

I called Randy Conner and he recommended North Star in Minnesota.  I learned that they have been bought out by Keystone Automotive Industries which is a huge national company.  Their website is http://www.keystone-auto.com.  I also learned that Keystone has depots all around the country and as luck would have it they have one in Orlando.  I took my parts to the depot and they gave me an estimate of $960 for both bumpers and four bumperettes.  I thought that was a pretty good price considering the condition of my parts.  The only bad part was that it took 3 months for them to do it.  The parts came back unbelievably good. I highly recommend them.

That's a fine look'n ride and a extra nice build. You gotta enjoy
driving that.I feel the pain you went through. I did about everything
on mine also. Lots a work for sure. I think this was my last. I just
don't have the energy anymore. I have done several though.
Good luck and wring it out once in awhile.

I feel the same way.  Don't think I'll ever do another one from the ground up again.  I usually drive my projects around for a while before selling them.  I have two friends that are bugging me already to buy this one, but I want to finish it.  I've restored a bunch of cars in my lifetime. Always wanted to do a 57 Custom and never got around to it.  I guess I can scratch that one off my bucket list.
