The '51 is ready for the show!

Never thought I'd say this, but I'm grateful both my grandmothers are gone. I would be SORELY tempted to sell one of them into a hideous life of debauchery to get my hands on that Lucite(R) wheel (%-{P}~~~~



Excellent work, Matt... as always. She's beautiful.

(P.S.: can that hanging wire behind the heater controls be zip-tied up somewhere so it doesn't show?)

WATCHOUT!!!! for that bridge ahead, looks like you are crowding that yellow line and the bridge pillar is right next to it. LOL i'm sure you made it just fine.
What a beautiful Business Coupe, Is it a Q1,Q2,Q3 or Q-4 body? My 51 is a Q4 -2233 of 2429 made, and doesn't have the stone guards. The ruby wheel and the wide whites set this car apart. Just stunning, I'm sure you and Tom will be the hit of the show.

Matt,
Absolutely awesome.... and in a beautiful shade too!!! I bow before your skills. Someday, I hope I can get my 40 to look half that good. Man, it sure is sweet!

That's so pretty that it hurts!!

Geez, Matt. You went thru Atlanta on 75? I drive 75 every day--you've got bigger stones than I have. I'm taking the Hawk around the east side on 285 to 85. Looks like traffic wasn't too bad on 75 when you went thru.

From an in person viewing I have to say I'm very concerned about Tom's car. How do I vote for the car if the color keeps changing from blue to red to brown to purple? That red steering wheel has to be seen. It is way too cool. You guys have really put together a nice car.

absolutely stunning

[dean pearson]

Yes, anyone that had anything to do with that should be extremely proud.

Dean.

I'll add some pictures later. But Tom not only won his Division, he also took Best of Show! Judging was People's Choice and the '51 was apparently a favorite. He's too happy for words.

Here's a photo of Tom with his car.
