    Wagon build photos

    I managed to find most of my grill parts and with the re-chromed and NOS parts I was able to piece it all back together.

    Still a thousand and one things left to do but it's slowly taking shape and most of the big exterior parts are back in place. HRP

    I'm jealous as hell...you are at the most rewarding part of any build. It's so much fun to go out to the garage and add that next piece. Every day spent in the garage makes a positive change. I know you are smiling like a Cheshire cat.:D It really is going to be a very very nice piece.

    I'm hoping to have it up and running by the Goodguys show at the speedway in Charlotte,North Carolina,,don't know if it will happen but that's my new goal!

    That will give me roughly 8 more months to finish putting it all back together,shake it down and get the interior done,,keep ya fingers crossed 'cause I'm too busy using mine to do it myself! :D HRP

    Love that wagon. I actually lust after all of your rides. It helps motivation when you are crossing off items from the list, not adding them. Clean work is the reward for all the rust,filth,cuts and burns.
