    Excellent work. Just think, not too many years ago that body would probably have been cut up and scrapped or just turned in for scrap. If only we could go back in time and save some of the lost ones.

    nice save..., but ya ruined it when you put the steel insert in the roof. I thought that a traditional rod would still have the fabric insert...

    you gave me an idea...send all your Model A stuff to me, the Model A Guru...I'll find a home for it...

    I didn't have the courage to tell you on the phone yesterday....I'm having your baby. Sorry you had to find out this way.

    I was impregnated in the 815.
