    This one will be memorable. I picked this body up from a friend of mine locally yesterday at 6:30pm. He's a great guy with a really *****in' '40 Ford sedan, and he wanted my '50 Ford coupe, as it is a bit more manageable for him than this model A roadster was. So, we struck a deal and I traded him for his pile of roadster parts. Knowing that I was going to have to sell the roadster due to my height, I decided to get started on it right away.
    As soon as I got home, another friend of mine met me at my shop to help unload the pieces.
    I stayed up till 11 last night putting things together, until I finally ran out of bolts.
    This morning I started on it right away, with the intent of doing a "light mock-up", just enough ***embly to show what is there.
    I also just came out with my 2nd gauge panel, the LIBERATOR panel. It's a 5 gauge hot rod panel fit for any flat dash. This afternoon after I had the body together, I decided to make a dash for this little roadster to showcase my new LIBERATOR panel.
    I got home last night at 7:30pm and started unloading. The roadster sold an hour ago. As I write this it's 7:00 PM, so technically, this is the story of the UNDER 24 HOUR roadster! Enjoy!
