This album shows the work Jim did on a 1954 Ford Customline. He put the car together, built the engine, put in the new wiring harness so it is now 12 volt, put in the new floors, upgraded and rebuilt the front end, ran the brake lines and did the most of the work on the car and had Brian help him on some items like the front end rebuild and hoisting the drivetrain into the chassis. My role was the overall look and design of the car, buying the parts I wanted on it, helping him with the paint as I prepped and pre-sanded it after doing some hole filling and mud work, and other minor details as needed/requested by Jim. Alex fixed the rusted hole/gash on the front passenger fender, he also sold us the 351W engine that Jim rebuilt. Kelly stitched the carpet and seats after I put in the sound/heat insulation on the floor. Doug painted the dash in black with metal flake. Chris pin-striped my speedometer. Thanks to Ron for showing me how to fill holes with a welder and helping me get the eight inch Ford rear end and C4 transmission.

Thanks list goes to Jim, Brian, Ron, Kelly, Doug, Alex and Chris.
