    My Basement flooded so I haven't gotten done as much as I would like. Been moving wet & soggy boxes and all that. But I did spread some plater and did a bit of work on the car today! Here are the tail lights I'll be using 61 Ford Galaxie's they look kinda like rocket after burners on this, LOL. You can see the fancy jig I made and taped to the muffler also.

    I didn't get to work on the Bubble top as much as I would have liked, Been bailing out my basement twice in the last week. We have had nothing but flooding rain here in Kansas City for a while. I did get in some plaster time and have a little something to update. I bulked up the nose and added my 58 Ford hood trim & got more done on the tail area. I got the drivers side body line pretty good, I love the way that fender just hangs over the M/T slick!

    Looking great!!! I think its so cool when someone builds something out of the norm and especially when an artists inspires someone else. Keep up the awesome work.

    Terrible!.

    I meant, you are making a big mess building that car, that's what I meant. Ya got a break a few plaster eggs to make a fiberglass omelet.

    I hope you didn't lose anything too valuable in the floods.

    Thanks Stromberg.
    I look at it this way, the photos would have gotten put in the garbage when I die so at least I was the guy to take a last look and do it myself. I'll always have the memories. LOL, sounds like Bob Hope

    Fritz,

    Progress is coming along fast and nicely!! When you called and told me about it and I looked at the pictures I figured it would have a mowing deck on it and you would replace you old broken down tractor to mow those green acres in style!!!
    Got the Hell Wagon's motor paid in full!!! Going down to pick it up next weekend to get the wagon back into roaming the streets scaring little children and old ladies.
    Take Care,
