That looks nice...........You need a lot of chrome to make it stand out.......

do you have the wide trim for the sides/ bonnet......

That looks a lot like my old 70 that we aged a bit...nice work.

good to see there are other 59's still out there.

I'm trying to work out the differences in bumpers, especially since mine seems to have the overriders on both the front and back.
