Tembo has been in the shop and this car was there when I dropped it off.

Like I told wanz, this is teh most creative custom job I have ever seen

Basically the color scheme is modeled after the penny with abraham lincoln all over it. Its a two-tone copper/creme mix. S00per sexy

This guy did the car from head to toe.

The interior: carpet, upholstery, dash, sound etc.

Exterior: rims, immaculate paintjob

The engine is brand damn new and awesome.

The guy even said the speedometer displays across the windshield when you drive.

Without further adieu I present le sexy Bel Air:

NSIW gold trim or the airbrush (just because from the back you just see Lincoln and be like wtf its a Chevy foo) but otherwise it is pretty bamf, especially for a theme car.

Most the time when someone tries to follow a theme, it turns out pretty bad :jester:

my dad has a 50 chevy 2door and a 51 ford pickup.

The truck was restored at one point and is almost mint. Has original engine. Hasn't been started in forever though. Probably won't start and when it does, that OG engine be slow as fuck.

The chevy is in decent shape body wise, could use a little interior work. However he had some friend of his put a newer automatic v6 from a minivan into it and new steering. The steering is scary, the accelerator sticks a little, and while driving it feels like its going to fall apart. With a little love it would be bamf though.

He also has a ford galaxy fairlane 500 or some shit. Don't remember the year but it ran okay a few years ago, just needed a little attention. Been sitting too long now. It looks almost identical to the one Chriz' dad has.
