yep, they sure do. It just isnt cheap.

I got, 1 full floor, 1 full trunk floor, 2 full inner quarters, 2 full outer quarters, 1 tail pan, 2 rockers, a seat back/brace, and a rear lower window channel for a shade uner 5 grand.

It just makes it super easy.

You can build an entire 57 Chevy from scratch out of a catalog. It is the most popular repro car ever made.

Joe, suprised you still have that thing. LOL. Is it done yet? 🙂

LOL. I told you. Trust me, you aren’t the only one I’m ball-busting about this. But get the damn thing finished. Stop posting on forums and get your ass in the garage.

I’ll have to swing by and check it out / harrass you 🙂
