48 Panel Update

Haven't been on here in a long while, been busy as heck! Just wanted to post some updated pics of the 48 Panel, finally got her driving and the body smoothed out and painted. I finally got the rear door liftgate conversion done as well. My 15 year old boy and I took her on Hot Rod Power Tour in June which was kind of her maiden voyage, we did the long haul and she did great, it was a blast! Anyway now that she's up and going we went last week and picked the boy up a 62 short bed unibody to work on, exciting stuff! Also keep an eye out for the 2018 AMSOIL Dealer Spotlight Calendar, she is going to be in the Calendar!
