Default Zippos Customs 65 lincoln continental custom wagon.

well i got off work late, so i got off to a late start, but i got something thrown together to get it all mounted up. the wheel base is just slightly off from perfect, but with the shape of the wheel wells most wouldn't notice

this station wagon is a "custom 3 kit" 3 different options you can do with this. if you look at the piece sitting on top of the rear, thats the station wagon part, kinda cool, but kinda chessy at the same time is the open areas have a huge window that goes in it. so its going to be build it, paint both pieces seperate, and then add that piece....... i don't like that fact. but o well, out of the box

That's huge! It's nice to see some out of the norm builds.What colour you going for on this,something simple or an intricate scheme? This is gonna be an intersting build.

i am debating going one of 2 ways, both intricate, 1 just more intricate than the other


alright, heres a little progress update, got the seats cut and fitted, dash it cut to fit, that will go in after the windshield though. and the top has some nice progress, you don't get to see it yet

i've changed color options a few times, but i finally think gold is going to suit this.
