I'm glad to see a build thread for this. I've been following the pictures on Instagram as well. Nice to see a full writeup along with them.
Fantastic news Tuck... So.... have you picked out a name? For the baby and the car? Congrats on both builds but I'm betting that the child will be Road ready before the car and both will be demanding much of you and your Brides time!
Hmmmm....'60's style SHOW and GO car? Chrome and candy? I don't know man.....them kinda cars are a little "flakey"....... P.S......kids rule. Make sure ya put a seatbelt at least in passenger side for the car seat. The best times ever in a hotrod are with yer kid beside ya.....
You have always built cool cars brother and I'm sure this will complement the others. Congratulations on becoming a Father and Husband ! Glenn
Way cool. Congrats on the upcoming wedding and little one. Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
Yup!! Good to see that you survived the "test" as that is what it was.........a test to see what your made of. Now, take off like there is no tomorrrow and show us the results. With the new project/wife/little one the only thing I see that you'll be missing is sleep. Frank
Thanks guys! Frank I hope there are no more tests! (-; but I'm ready if there are- Small update- bought a primer gun last week and ppg is covering half of my paint because I work at Perry's- so I bought epoxy and some other stuff to get started- (-: Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
Congrats, Tuck! While I'm really glad to hear you're back building hotrods, I'm really stoked about the new lady and kid. My kid will be 40 [!] and we have a lotta fun together with cars/hotrods/racing etc. Stop by when you get in the "hood".
Hahaha tuck sleeping, that's a myth! Congrats man, I'm echoing everyone else but I've been very happy to not only see you building but to see you progressing. Life is good, couldn't be any happier for you Posted using My Dick Tracy watch and the full custom HAMB app
Hi Tuck.Outstanding info on the family and baby.Oh yeah.The roadster is looking swell too. Good luck.Have fun.Be safe. Leo
Congrats Tuck!! Glad to hear about the baby on the way and the marriage! My wife and I tried for over a year to get pregnant and now she is almost a month away from delivery!!! Like one said, building a kid is awesome!! I cant wait to see the progress on the HAMB. Keep up the good work and dont give up!!! Jason
Awesome thread! Being a Dad is the best thing I have ever had the opportunity of doing. Nothing beats being a father, and a Hot Rodder. I try to have my son with me as much as I can when messing with cars or just hanging out. Good luck with the build, but better than that good luck with starting a family. Nothing better.
(-: (-: thank you thank you thank you to everyone- Danielle and I are so excited! We've been busy getting ready for the wedding next month- and I started teaching again so I've been busy writing curriculum and working on a wind tunnel I'm building at school- - I plan on posting an update soon- I bought a bunch of polishing equipment- I got some mag wheels last year- vintage ets and I got everything to restore them- the mags are pretty good- 15x6- just a few minor blems that should sand and polish out- Then I can mount the rubber!!
