    It's magic! That little princess turned into a Beautiful grown up princess and the magic part, that rotten looking old 40 Std. Tudor became a beautiful 40 DeLuxe Tudor.

    Nice photos and great story.

    This is what started me on a Model A build in 1990. Took eight years to collect the rest of the parts.

    Good Bones- but by my design or default , I've had to rebuild, have rebuilt every component or system.
    Which is GOOD.
    Now the truck has it's own pedigree, & build list from it's 'rebirth'.
    Just keeps getting better, which leaves the smile wider!

    traded 5 days labor framing & rocking a hallway and double closet for the mess in this womans garage. drug it home in 3 truckloads. 1 year in my mancave and its now a truck.
    i invited her to see it at a local car show when she showed up she broke down in tears. her husband died after nine tears of playing with it. it overwhelmed her to see it done. i kinda backed off and let her have some time with it. Wow what a humbling feeling

    Ok I have one to share, this poor little Falcon Sprint came to me on 13" steel wheels and sitting up like a grocery cart.....


    I pulled the rusty coils n shocks and set it up properly on Shockwaves and AirOverLeaf, then finished it off on some American Racing Salt Flats....

    It's true - you really have to take the before and after pictures.... I usually forget to do that, but I do have some before and after of this Thunderbird seat that's about ready to go back into the '56....

    Someone had recovered it in all white who knows when, but I was after a more stock looking interior so I got new covers and seat foam for it... worked w/ Bell Trim here in Plano, TX and did it up right... came out ok!
