    What do you guys think of this job?

    Kinda funky--looks like it gave birth to this chopped Jet that has been for sale forever in California:

    Wish there was a better view of the front and back, I like the Caddy nose bullets and would like to see how the back was done. But, the chop and drop is a little much for my taste.
    Six in a row makes it GO!

    Agreed....would love to get up close and personal with this and see how it was done, but I feel the same.....the chop is a little on the extreme side. BUT I love how low it is!!! What's the big black thing on the hood?? Is that just paint, or some kind of scoop??
    This Hudson project is starting to scare the crud out of me!!!

    I like it. Bumpers look great on this car. I think that the Cordoba headlamp rings are a bit large though, gives it an owl look. Something's up with the hood though, wrong hood and grille mixture. It would be fun to finish.

    - Fun to finsh yes, but 18K starting bid- ouch. Another 20K you could have a 25K car... Looks like alot of stuff needs to be finsihed (interior glass, paint, chrome etc)

    Agreed, way too much for an unfinshed car. It's not even on a Hudson frame.
