    here are some pics of another model a that has been hiding out in a barn for some time,
    It is now running again and is going to wait its turn until we get a chance to give it a facelift. [​IMG]

    Now I have to ask why I can't see these photos. I am at work, now I have to wait till I get home to view them. Is there something I have to turn on, or is my work messing it up?

    Why facelift it, just leave it how it is, it's perfect IMHO.

  14. Straight from the "brown generation"... or "the decade of the big/big combo"

    I do remember the unreal numbers of brown hotrods in the '70s...

    ...and Joeys are just plain lovable...

    Man, I wish I'd stick to projects that are already driveable.

    I'd drive that thing as-is until I could formulate a good plan for it. I don't even like slotted wheels much, but they look OK on that car. What are your plans?

    Uhm, er, uh, thanks, I think. But coming from a Joe_ I guess that's OK.
    Wish that was my Model A. Beats my 2 piles of dented rust.

    some guys have all the luck finding stuff like that. Face lift? hell no, throw headlights in the buckets and run it like it is.
