Hell yeah!

Edit: changed the topic name from My new (very old) -54 Ratlook oval

Ibought while ago two ovals -54 and -55 and now I'm starting to rebuild that older one...

Plans are clear. First I restore floorpan to TOP condition and make some lowering to front end. For body I planned just to weld spots that is needed to weld, no paint job... Ratlook rocks!!

Engine will remain as secret for now...

here is some pictures of it...

I try to keep gallery upp to date incase someone is iterested to check it out time to time...
