I've heard a bunch of stories about this car, but yesterday was the first time I saw it in person. Impressive build

Certain things I love about this car and then there are things that don't do it for me personally, but one thing for sure the craftsmanship is a 10!!

I'll try to help out here, I've been observing this awesome build for the past three years. The louvers are custom metal sheets that were pre stamped and then formed into side panels. There are skirts that match the curvature of the fenders so the louvered panels are removable without taking the fenders off like an original '33. The front fenders and running boards are not FFR pieces, the rear fenders are though. The front fenders are fiberglass repops of original '33 fenders. The running boards are authentic metal '33 I believe. FRR took a lot of liberty with the fenders and running boards but the owner wanted the original look. The front of the fenders had to modified quite a bit to meet up with the grill properly. Authentic steel frame horns were added to the front of the frame to hang the bumper.

That is Edward S. car. Here is a link to a thread more about his car.

Edward sent me some pictures of a photoshoot he did a little while back, but he said he needed to go through the pictures to see what ones he really wanted to have posted (he said there was a lot of them), hopefully he will get back with me sometime, so I can post them for him.
