    Ratatouille,I've been following you since the first time you posted. I'm impressed by your skills,Your imagination and mostly your willingness to work outside in all kinds of weather.
    You are truly an inspiration to us all! I understand that this is a work-in-progress with a limited budget.
    Thanks for taking us along along on your journey!

    These are the kinds of stories that are so inspiring. Yours, Snewpie's and others that were built with little money, space or tools are what it's all about.

    I grumble about what I lack but then when I read the updates on projects such as this, I feel a little embarrassed. At least I have a small garage with a door that can be shut in the winter and a cooler I can run in the summer. I salute you on your dedication and perseverance. Happy motoring!

    The only shelter he had was a Beach Umbrella...unbelievable as it seems but it's true.

    Calling this, simply, a cool custom is like calling the Mona Lisa a nice painting! I can't express how impressed I am with what you have built, no matter what your limitations with a place to work or lack of equipment and a limited budget. Job very well done! :cool::cool::cool::cool::cool:

    That is what the smallest and simplest a traditional hot rod or custom shop can be. Lol.

    If you see some of the old jalopy was build in driveways or in the shade of a tree.

    So talent isn't propesional to shop size.

    I always thought that @langy has the best talent to shop ratio, but the rat proved with this build he is a serious contester for an even better Ration

    Ratatouille; Like many others I've been following your build from the start. It's a truly inspirational project. While the whole project is coming out great, I especially like this detail:
    What a perfect spot for the name!

    I like 'em alright. I lived with three once. Unfortunately, they all occupied the same body.

    Great car, and it got ya the woman already.

    Impressive what an ugly thing it was, and how great it is now. Only a few little things I'd change if I could, biggest would be the name on the ownership papers!
