Looks the Ratrod baja look is catching on in Arizona. You guys are way ahead of us Californians.

Looks good but you really took the "minimalist look" to the extreme.

Very traditional Cal Look.

The body is a late 55, so it came with early features like ribbed doors and the big square fuel tank, but also a pea shooter apron and bullet turn signals from the 56-57 cars. The wheels/tires and transaxle are going back to the previous owner, as we have our own plans in mind.

Sorry, OT here: Zach, who owns the 71/72 Chev truck in the background? Looks like my old one that went to AZ about 10 years ago!

We're building it together from parts we've been collecting for years. He did the horse trading to get the actual car, though.
