Hehe, on this one I just might make it. All I have to do is keep getting handmedowns and stuff I can get deals on. So far I have a free body and some very inexpensive parts, thanks to Paul.

Might have a chance to redeem myself here.

We had a real nice time, I'm just not to good at relaxing. So after a week I'm ready to go, I miss my garage .

I bet 99 % of us guys are just like that. Only thing worse than going on vacation and relaxing is sitting in that stupid chair they put in the womens section so you can sit there and wait while they try on a hundred outfits. Every time I had to do that I would see some other poor schmo like me, sitting there bored out of his mind too.

Glad to see you back.

Don,
The new project looks interesting, do you know what you are going to do for a frame?
Ken

Yep, we have two sticks of 2 x 3 x 3/16 tubing laying around, and I plan on using that. I will find a model a rear crossmember and do it just like I did my '23. I probably will also use a Total Performance front tube crossmember and perch, because for something like $ 75 you can't beat it, and it is a hard to find diameter.

BTW "Papa Ken", I need a raise in my allowance.

Don

Oh good, I was hoping you would build it. I have a extra model A rear cross member, but I want a lot for it. Let me know if you are interested
Ken

Do you really? If so, when I do get started on it I'd like to talk with you about it. (and YES, they are worth "a lot" whatever the price is, I would be happy to pay that amount. (My best imitation of Arnie in "Christine" when he was telling the old guy he wasn't asking enough for the car. )
