    Been workin on this car off and on for a long time (22 years).
    I know I will be called on a lot of things that aren't traditional but here it is anyways.

    I don't like to have others do work. No money for that. I have done all of the mechanical, body work, sprayed every ounce of paint and sewn every inch of the upholstery.

    THAT is one hell of a car! Congratulations!

    I still don't have time to learn to sew a straight line on the upholstery machine.
    You obviously have become a pro!

    Ohmigod, your '40 looks fantastic! I especially like the interior - just sweet. Damn, you've got me all fired up now. Maybe it's time to drag my '40 DeLuxe tudor out of storage - after 34 years sitting in the exact same spot in my garage!!! Good things take time, you know...
