10 Pennies This has been an ongoing project for myself for the last few years. It started out as a simple bodydrop project and spiraled into something far from simple. Its definately a full build and is far from done, but just figured I'd share. I'll let the pics do the rest.

Why not right hand drive? I'm in Maryland, but want to see the looks on peoples face when its out driving around. Everything to do with the steering, exhaust, firewall, was all new so it was just a matter of which side to put it on.

Thanks guys. I've built a lot of it myself, but did have help from a few friends with a little more knowledge with the frame and floors. John @ Getbored Designs has helped tremendously and I will give him credit for the frame and suspension design.
Engine will be freshened up with a new cam and just a few bolt ons. I'd love to put a Maggie on, but I want to keep a stock hood with the body drop which is hard to do, especially when you cut into the rockers.
