He performed most of the body work on this stunning car.
But at some time during the construction the car was taken
to Harry burnett shop who did the finishing body work.
Harry had a machinist make some dies to roll the quarter window stainless molding
then weld it where he cut it down so it looked factory one piece with just the clip.
The window moldings he had to chop them all down and metal finish them
so the owner could chrome them, as you can see in your pics.
