Im glad I found it here; in searching images over the years for '55-59 Chevy trucks your truck has come up alot. It is like a 'fixture' for the essence of a true custom chevy truck now and I think I can speak for the entire amateur customizer world of builders that you have created a true work of automotive art.

The Pros like Kindig, Foose, Coddington, Mayer, Steuer and Shine should be proud that somebody can put something like this together in such great detail.

Hats off to you Sir for some great inspiration for all of us "Homey-Builders"! ;)

Thank You

Thanks for the kind words PTC!
