It didn't start life as a panel. It has rear window switches on the console.

Nice job, I would like to see some smoke billowing from the rear wheels.

One of kind for sure, but at the end of the day I would have just done an SS engine conversion. It will make a great show car though.

It's a shame to go to all the work to build this type of conversion and then power it with an iron smallblock. My 1935 Ford sedan was a bit harder to do by installing an LS1 engine but I still would never use an earlier powertrain. Very nice work though, nice fabrication and a good design.
