Consider boxing in an opening in the attic floor and forming a drop down insert that drops down via an electric winch. Make your insert so that it's level with the attic floor for easy loading &...

Wes,
Hope that your barn/shop gets done to support getting the VR out of the RV captivity, repairs done and into paint! Looking forward to seeing a picture of it sitting on the circle drive out...

Tremec's TKO units have a NSS. Got mine wired into the start circuit on the '33. Recall a truck I had that had a switch on the clutch, which worked well too.

Wow! I was excited to see your ID pop up after the understandable absence, but gut punched to see the pictures and read the story of the damage. I imagine that your son was devastated, anticipating...

Had to smile at the muffler story. Too bad you split the muffler, but it sure did make a good story here.

The car's gonna look great cruising in & out of your new neighborhood.

Looks like a very nice place, Wes! Congratulations on the find, and best of luck as you move to closing! Is that last picture the road leading up to the house? I like that the garage has a pass...

Wes, we have good friends who were in that situation, and he took a unique approach. They found a corner property in an area that had not yet "popped" with the developers and bought an 80 acre...

Agree 100%! Kind of bench racing for a scratch build. Lots of memories of how you got things done, and the potential of learning a few things, too. Sounds like a good time!

There's a kit for that (those)!!! :D:D;)

For me the term "kit car" has a negative connotation. Having a fiberglass bodied hot rod I get the "Is it a Kit Car?" all the time. I generally say that the State uses the term "Kit Car" for...

That's the Northern California Kit Car Club, right Wes? There're a lot of regional clubs out there, all tied to Kit Car Builder - Kit Car Builder magazine I ran across this stuff when I was looking...

Great news, Wes!! Congratulations, big time!

Wes, I enjoy seeing your mold process, and that you take time to describe the way you form. Using the masonite and florists foam, both cheap & readily available, is great, and the comment about...

A newly issued/installed VIN plate is a beautiful site! Congratulations!

Nah, you took the right approach 110%! The buckles are nice on period correct vehicles from back in the day, but they simply don't fit on that sleek red beauty. He's ruining the lines, like you said.

Nice job on the carpeting, and the hood "pins" rock! They look sleek and are very secure. Good choice, great install!

Yep, he'll be claiming driving rights on the "Maiden Voyage Clause":LOL::LOL: That's going to look like a million bucks with paint, Wes. You've done a fantastic job on it.

At the time Norm had moved to a small town in Arkansas, so it fit really well and everyone understood that yes, a hen weighs three or four pounds. :rolleyes: In the city people would just get a very...

Indeed looking very nice! It doesn't say "kit car" in any way, but will have people asking what it is, for sure! Maybe steal ol' Norm's answer when people would ask about his old truck that was a...

Wes,
One of the Christmas packages I wrapped for my wife two years back was a pair of seat warmer panels, relays & switches. When she opened the package she had this look of "...what the heck is...

I think in the long run you'll be happier with black on black, with black thread. It's a rich, subdued look that compliments any color. That said, colors are a personal choice, and you're the only...

The covers look great, Wes! You didn't ask, but as I look at the six photoshop shots hands down I like the black on black best, and the dark grey on black (upper right) second best. The other color...

Wow! Congratulations! I think everyone who's ever built a car knows at least a bit of your feelings today. A day to remember, for sure!!

Like the innovative approach! Fleece is an amazing tool, but can be challenging to anchor, for sure. Great job!

Wes,
Check out Herculiner - Herculiner Truck Bed Liners It goes on with a roller, so you can easily control "overspray" issues with masking. I used it on the bottom of my '33, and it's great! Use...
