I will probably be the minority, but I love deadlines. I think it comes from years of drag racing. Regardless, I seem to do better under stress. I think you can do this,looking at the photo's you have got a lot of the hard stuff done. Even if you try and miss the date you are going to have fun with your son, and that will be more memorable than any street rod event. besides your T will hold two people.

Uh, no, I'm at about $ 1501.77 right now.
OK, BRIAN WOULD JUST SQUEAL ON ME, SO I BETTER TELL THE TRUTH !
I gave up on that premise part way in. Long story that I've repeated a few times, but basically I started to like the car too much and wanted it to be better. I have no idea where I am right now, in all honesty......Probably $ 12 K, but that is just a guess.
However...............I do have a Model A cowl and doors, and some '35 Ford wire wheels, and am planning on ACTUALLY doing another project as soon as this one and the '39 Dodge are done. I promise to stick to the $ 3K thing next time.
Thanks for asking though. (Darned Brian let the cat out of the bag
)
Don

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.
