I wanted to thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers. It has been very difficult with my fathers passing. It was very sudden and unexpected. You know we all have to face this type of thing one day, I just wasnt ready for it since he had just gone to the doctor for some congestion. My father loved cars and especially 1932 fords. I am 31 now but I have been right there beside him working on these things all my life. In fact the week we had just began putting the running boards and fenders on his roadster. I stayed out most of the night he died to put the car back together for his funeral. I ran into a couple of problems with the car and called it a night to start back the next morning. On the way home I got all upset because usually we could talk the problem out and come to a solution. This time he wasnt there. It's going to be a difficult time with him not being here. I got out the roadster yesterday to do a little tweaking on the carb and then just went driving. It was about 75 degrees out. I know my dad would have loved to do that.
Once again thanks to all.

I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
