    A bit of a tease. After years of lost interest I started back in on this project and it’s getting pretty close. The photo above is just before it left for upholstery. With a little luck it will make the national roadster show at the first of February

    How could you lose interest? That is pretty slick.

    Life and work was more of a priority. Even though it was being built by HHR I liked to stay involved.

    Wow. My first car was a 59 bird. Still got a soft spot for them, but I’ve never seen one that nice. Great work.
