its actually much further than that pic but thats the only one i have on my PC


oh . . an value wise the 57 is much higher than the 50. small rear window 57 are the best :cool: :cool:

i cant + my mechanics cant do this much stuff.but we will chop top and install f-body front end.perhaps 350 cu in,m21 etc..

'57 is very valuable, the '50 is not nearly as desirable. Go with the '57.

glassdave 11-14-2003 06:58 PM

cool . . post pics of it if you can. be careful choping that top. it was the hardest one i'v done yet. i can take some better detailed pics if you need them. are parts hard to get over there?
