For those who've followed along, THANKS! For those that are new, my son, Courtland, will be 16 on 3/12. We've been working on his truck since 2006 and she started for the first time today. Here is his saga: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=137385 Here is the movie version for those that don't want to read a book!
Thanks for the update Dan. I've got a feeling that kid is going to turn our just fine. Cort, congrats on getting it fired up. Finishing this project is going to be a real feather in your cap when you look back on it years from now. It will be a reminder that nothing is impossible if you set your mind to it and follow up with lots of dedication. Frank
Feels good, huh? Well done. I'd bet it's gonna move along at a lil better pace now. Nothin like some fresh CO to get ya motivated.

hay dan, dosnt court have a account on the hamb???????? if not get him one dude, lets get him to start posting being he has his truck runnin now
Dave, If you mean Frank (Enjenjo), that was the END of a long week in which he (and Court) fabbed up the clutch mount, the P/S mount, fixed a hundred things, wired a hundred more, and got the beast to crank. If it weren't for him, the original thread would be another year in the making!
He's not on yet, well unless you count over my shoulder. He'll get there but we'll wait until school is out. He gets distracted like his old man and will spend more time on here than I do!
I can't think of a better 16th birthday present than having your hot rod running! Congrats Court (Dan and Eli too! )! Good seeing the three of you over the weekend! Now you know I expect a ride this summer!
Cort Happy Birthday a little early! Congrats on hearing the BEASTY run tis a great feeling.. Good to see ya in Detroit look forward to seeing it in June Tim
Cort, congrats on getting it fired up and the B-day. Congrats to you to Dan, I know from following the build thread you guys have put a lot of effort into this project. Good luck on the next step, prep and paint.
Happy birtday Court!! Dan, the truck runs great... nice going now a movie when you or court are driving it
