Amazing body work, I think it's a sharp looking ride that'll stand out no matter where it goes. I especially like the extended fins. Makes me think of my grandfathers '56 Ford Ranchwagon.

Is that a '53 or '53 chevy taillite? That's pretty slick work. I'd sure like to do that type, and that good of work.
