G.R. that's a cool electric blue! Hey don't apoligize for having the money to buy the car you want. Everyone's circumstances are different. For example you could be Chip Foose-talented but if you lived in a apartment with no garages you couldn't use your skills.
Well - the only downside is -
Ya gotta wait 'til February - any trouble sleeping???? :D
Just never learned how to do the fabricating and welding. Now if you want to talk about building homes or light commercial buildings....that's another thing entirely. Spent 35 years in that business. Thought a lot about buying a 'glas '32 5-window hi-boy roller and finishing it myself....but reality set in. I'd be trailering the thing everywhere to have this welded and that done....Naaah! not again.Quote:

Yes and no---the weather here sucks right now. snow packed and icy streets, though the main roads are clear...and teens to below zero temps:(
Just thought you should know, no snow, little ice.............but it's supposed to get down to 15 tonight.:D And a full moon.:whacked:Quote:

You have objectively looked at what you can and cannot do and by getting this car you will be on the road enjoying it years ahead of us who do ours piece by piece.
The car you are getting looks fine already, and once you put some personal touches on it you will really have something there to be proud of. Keep us posted when you get it and make some changes.

Love those cars GR & Coyote. The closet Ive came to owning one was a 46 Prefect turned sedan delivery many moons ago, not a ground pounder, as
it only had a 231, but still managed to chirp the tires
