    Only 14 and have a cool Model A ???

    Awesome ... :D
    So ... how old do you have to be to drive in your state ?
    In South Carolina it used to be 14 :) back when I started ... in 1962 ... but I think they have raised it some now. I have no kids so I do not know the age requirement now ...

  23. Boy you have gotten alot done since I last saw it person. Can't wait to see you driving it. I think there is a certian show in Tucson coming up very soon that it should be shown for the first time. I hope you stay with droped axle idea, that will be the icing on the cake. Sure we can't talk Wade out of the riley for you.

    Wow! Chris, it is looking really good and the color combo you are thinking with will have a slick vibe to it. You will have one of the coolest cars if not the coolest car in high school. It is great to see you make progress on your Tudor, I cannot wait until it is done. We will have to figure out a bbq and cruise for your first run on the road when it is done and you are legal.
