Very nice looking for sure. I've always loved the chrome reverse wheels with baby moons look.

Dave,
Did you do the body and paint? Looks great!

The car really looks significantly better than the pictures I posted. No, I had nothing to do with the paint job or the restoration for that matter. I did have a local painter spruce up the lettering and pin strips where they were faded. I also tore out the carpet in the rear of the van and installed an oak bed with stainless slats. Made a huge "wow" factor visually when the rear door is opened. Also put in a new wiring harness, custom "FORD" floor mats and replaced the air ride with springs and shocks. Everything else was the work of a very skilled restorer. I plan on replacing the vinyl interior with leather in the future and chroming the bumper brackets. When this is completed I believe it will be a grade 1 vehicle. Thanks for your inquires. Sorry it took me so long to reply but I spend most of my time on the Hudson and forgot to check this post.
