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.

Absolutely brilliant. You may wear that smile for several days as you deserve it. I have a friend that has a Plymouth of that same shape, would you mind if I up lifted some photo's of your car as I'm sure he will be impressed and just may motivate him a little ?I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.

Just went back thru your build again, that's a lot of metal work! Congrats on hanging in there, and finishing.
What great quality work, look's amazing! I have a soft spot for the early Mopars, had a 48 Ply Coupe in high school,
sure wasn't as nice as yours though!

Yeah, as soon as I finish the last few interior items we're going to give it a good scrubbing and take a run by his house. Probably a few weeks or so. I'll post pictures and see if he might have an old picture of it somewhere. He owned it for almost 50 years, he should have something.1 Corinthians 1:27
