Re: new member 1965 chevy
Read thru your whole thread! I like the old chevys, always have! Your interior has given me some ideas... Nice work so far! The metal fabricating is nice too. I worked with a friend in his streetrod shop for quite a while & learned so much about metal from him - it addicting! Keep up the good work, a huge transformation!
