    I love the personal touches you put on the 33, well done.
    I was drawn to the Hotrod because so many of them are unique and not just another clone.

    Did you use the original trunk hinges or make new ones to do the reverse trunk opening? A terrific job by the way.

    Yes is was the same hinges. Using them saved some fab work. I like how it all turned out. The only down side came from the placement needing to be in the middle in order to clear the back of the body. with the two hinges close together there is a lot more freeplay and wobble back and forth. thankfully it isn't to much of a problem with the two gas lift springs helping to support/limit it.

    What kind of wheels are you using. They fit the theme well.
    Great fab work, by the way.
