Here are some shots of a budget cruiser we are doing for an older gentleman. He wanted an everyday 50's style driver so we put an 8" rear on a CE spring kit, a C-4 automatic, complete rewire with aftermarket gauges behind stock panel. and hooked the shifter to the stock column and shift lever. The stock '46 flathead has a '49 cam, front cover and distributor. This is what it looke like so far. He plans on leaving the hood off for a while just as he did several decades ago.

EASY boys !!!! I'm 61 and my customer is somewhat older. The description is purely with respect!! As for the adapter and head covers, I sell them in my store. Made by Grampa's Hotrod parts in California. The adapter sells fully polished for $175 and the head covers come 'raw' for $225

Hope everyone has a great and Merry Christmas
