    Today I had the pleasure of a short visit from two friends from here... Unshined 2, and Max Gearhead. :)
    They were down this way to pick up some parts, so stopped for a short visit.
    Always a pleasure to spend time with friends that are what this forum is all a bout !!
    Snapped a picture of them with my '49 Shoebox Project...

    Love the ShoeBox. My Dad’s first new car was a ‘49 two door when I was 9 years old.

    Thanks much,
    I am (80) years old with some handicap issues and have been working on it of two years now. I have wanted a Shoebox since I was Fourteen.
    Was not much to start with, but hoping to be driving it in a few months...... (driving, not completed) :)

    I was wondering the same thing, hoping Max isn't a mute.

    409 part or a pulled pork sandwich works too . . . so I've heard.
