    Here's hoping!

    When it first surfaced locals thought it was this local T built in the late 50's that someone had swapped the baby hemi for a nailhead however after one of the original builders of this T was consulted it was learned it's an entirely different T that just happened to look damn similar.

    Just saw the post. Lots of work, more than I'd be willing to undertake with possible poor results, but you nailed it.

    i could never get my head around watercolor but i'm always impressed with its potential. i was (am?) more of an oil color painter but i'm trying to convert to acrylic. thanks for the inspiration.

    When I was in high school I had an art teacher who was a watercolorist. It influenced my choice of medium and I find that, because of that, it's hard to feel comfortable in oils or acrylics.

    Are those Hurst brand wheels? If so, I have not seen any in more than 40 years.
