    Thank you all. Hehe, chicken legs, huh? Never gonna live that one down.

    Tonight I undercoated the floor and undersides with brush on truck bed liner, went on well but I got more on me than on the car. Now the car shouldn't rust and neither will I. The stuff dries very fast, so tomorrow I plan to clean my frame and running gear well and when the Kids get to the shop to help me lift we can put the body down onto the frame. If all goes well that should be the last time.

    In theory, I should be able to drive the car for the first time by next weekend. All I have to do is bleed and adjust the brakes and wire it, plus install things like my steering shaft and wheel. I see another YouTube coming.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    That's actually pretty cool. I was thinking of having an airbrush guy do one of those old cam decals, like the girl riding a camshaft. I would put it down a little lower though, almost to the bottom. I had a Lady Luck decal on my '27 in that same position.

    No, actually, now that I look at it, I had the same Mr Horsepower woodpecker on my '27 that you posted. I had Lady Luck on the windshield.
