Thread: One Way To Build A '32 Hyboy

Tweet

A couple of folks that I know have had knee or hip replacements - I understand that it is not an ordeal that you look forward to for fun and giggles.

Ken, I'm sorry to hear that she has had to go through that period of pain and suffering though she should be able to regain any lost mobility and it will only be a bad memory in a few weeks. Keep her comfortable and happy - the car will wait a while.

Ken good to see you up and posting. Knee surgery is brutal. I've observed a total knee and total hip surgeries while in school, and you just have to think, god that must hurt, just watching it! I won't go into details, but wish her a speedy recovery, and I guess your stuck vacuuming out the shop for a while!
I'll give you a ring when I get to S. Cal. and see if your still up for a visit. Steve.

High tech hot rod.............high tech wife...........sounds like a good combo to me!

Best wishes for a good and speedy recovery for her.

Yep, some guys have it all! On that note I would like to comment on Ken doing this thread, and I hope he doesn't mind me doing it.

I kinda pushed Ken into doing this thread, he felt it wouldn't have a broad enough appeal to be interesting and that it might come across as showboating. Nothing could be further from the truth. Ken has explained each update in a clear, interesting manner, and his pictures speak volumes about the quality of work he does. I think this is one of the best threads on building a car that I have even seen, and from talking with some of you I know you look forward to each update as much as I do.

What is great about seeing a car of this level come together is that it makes each of us want to bring our own cars up a few notches too. I may not be able to turn out some exotic bracket that I see someone else make, but I sure am going to borrow parts of it and try to make something similar myself.

Just wanted to thank Ken for taking the time and effort to post these updates and pictures.
