    Melissa, my wife saw this running, licensed 1929 MOdel A for sale on craigslist. I caved in, she made the trip and brought it home. Keep your craigslist searches going... there is some good stuff out there.

    She wants to build a rod and I have always wanted to do a model A speedster, so when she tires of driving the old 4 banger, I will give her the body and I keep the rest to build on. A partnership made in heaven.

    Hey! You know where to find me... That one is my personal hauler. 20' E/T with the push ****on electric over hydraulic tilt, 102" wide floor, drive over fenders, steel floor over gridded crossmembers and a 9k winch wired up and ready to go with a 750amp hour battery right on the trailer. See? It worked so well, I just let my wife hook it up to her hummer. She drove 130 miles up, bought the car, winched it up on the deck, tied it down and hauled it home all by her lonesome.

    My wife has hauled a half dozen cars for me over the last few years...It works out well for us, she likes to travel, I get to stay home and get some quiet time

    When you have a girl in your life that loves what you love and hates what you hate.... your life is pretty darn good. I am lucky. Heck... she even made me bacon and eggs this morning! ~ For a guy turning 50 that IS getting lucky, if you know what I mean!
