Looking good. You are going to owe Donny big time when this car is done. Unbelievable that he has devoted so much time and work to helping you. He must be a really good friend and nice guy.

Don

Yeah there is no question to what kind of guy he is, He is a ture hot rodder. Yeah he is mostly building this car for me, but he is also doing it to teach me, and to add one more to his list. On top of that, I think that he is having fun with this too, to build one that you dont have to send countless hours on finishing and painting. He would fit in as my 2nd dad.




We still did not drive it today, but we are even closer. I have to put a few finishing touches to it Monday and I do belive donny will take it on its 1st trip in the after noon.

Video on the burn out soon

Every once in a while a rodder like him comes along. When I was growing up most of the older guys couldn't be bothered, but one guy, John Holbrook, treated us like adults and would let us hang around his shop. He was a real craftsman and had a '32 roadster, a '34 pickup, a '35 Caddy, and a bunch more.

Sounds like Donny is cut from the same cloth.

Don

Sure sounds like it.

I DROVE IT TODAY!

Yes it moves under it's own power, there are a few last little things for Donny to handle tonight, palte braket in back, the grill mount and the aire cleaner needs a little work too. Check the fluids and the burn out will be so soon.....

Pics and vids.....

Very cool!
