My Chrysler last Saturday

 

3 years ago,and now. Getting closer.

 

The Raven before and after restoration. Fortunately the car was complete and in reasonable barn find shape. Unfortunately, everything on the car needed to be restored. The chrome bill was a killer.

 

Here is my hotrod, mounting the engine and the other picture, first run!!

Heres a few shots of our Henry J , when we picked it up, 2 days after new year a couple years ago, Myself, a good bud Steve (with truck& trailer) and kid Gabe,Quick funny.. I was really sick the day we left, puked down the side of the truck in a long sweeping curve, and Steve starts laughing hard.. I was kinda chucklin , called him, a cruel sob, and he comes back with ..no man not laughing at you,.. the poor guy in the car following us just had to turn on his wipers, I turned and looked and just started laughing as I just blasted him with the mornings oat meal (see truck side photo) sick or not I was going to Carolina to get this.. a few photos. of the beginning and slow process to now, first shots are when we picked it up , a few after removing all the original parts we didn't need, (still wearing its shedded in Carolina dirt) with 8.5 torque thrust style 15's and s 10 rear, then shots with wheelwells rough trimmed and the 9"ford loosly installed, it has been on hold while we re built a 50x 30 building and we still are gathering parts, (mostly off of Craigs list, I'll do a build thread as we do finally get rolling, Thanks all Regards Jim

 

Totally Stunning!!

 

I never get tired of posting pictures of my Cars.

This is my latest project that I'm about to start!

and now it looks like this!


The last one looked like this when we pulled her out of the container!

and after 1000 hours she looks like this.


The Chevy I've had the longest looked like this in '94

and after way too many mods to list here, she looks like this!

Here is the then and now.

 

My latest project - bought on ebay - drove out to Ohio with empty trailer and brought it home to New Hampshire. I noticed on the way out that Summit Racing showroom was right off one of the exits...so "had to" make it the first rest stop on the return trip.
The loading onto the trailer sure is easy when the seller has his own ramp truck....

 

I've still got a loooong way to go on mine, but here's when I got it:






And here's how it is now:

 

Before and now,
