Hand made -Chevrons- ??Bow Ties?? !

Hand made -Chevrons- ??Bow Ties?? !

My buddy Pete has a cool ‘56 Chev with a five speed. The real cool part of this car is the one off grill. Pete spent countless hours hand cutting and filing these chevrons Bow ties . It’s a great look and unique – I’ve never seen anything anywhere that is more intricate or unique. A couple other cool features on this car are the tail lights and ‘lumber jacket’ interior.

They’re called Bow Ties, an honest mistake from a Ford Dude. (”,)

Sorry about that – not sure what you guys call them, I just know there’s a lot of them. Too much work for me, but Pete pulled it off!

The 40 Ford had Chevron shaped tail lites.

What about a shot of the interior?
I am curious about the lumber jacket interior.
Is it a type of canvas like carhart pants?

Sorry, I don’t have a dedicated interior shot, but if you go into ‘my vehicles’ and scroll down to “3rd Annual Don Drennan Car Show” you can ‘supersize’ the shot from the 3/4 front and see a bit of the back seat.

Now… why would a Ford have CHEVrons on it? Hmmm.
