Since the article appeared online I have painted the engine, put the new head and water pump on, and had the canvas top installed. The beach pictures were taken by Tim Sutton at the 2014 Race of Gentlemen

My growing family is forcing me to move on to something that will allow me to fit the whole family in. I would prefer to sell outright but would consider a trade for the right 49-54 Chevy or Ford Shoebox mild custom.

Thanks for looking.
