Been going back and forth about header color. Really like the silver 'Jet Hott' look but thinking white would be more 'period correct'

Love the Chevy II, looks like a really nice car. My buddy also had one he was building that's presently unfinished. A buddy of mine recently picked it up and is going to complete the project for the family. Should be really cool, he started with a perfect 16,000 mile car found on Hemmings, got the frame rails/straight axle in, got a 9" rear from an early Bronco, a real L88 427 and a Muncie 4 speed. It's black with the original plastic seat coverings.

Super cool biggus. Have fun with that thing. I remember stories of my dad's 57. Very cool that you could continue something that your friend started.
