    Would have loved to see the car at the show, but I'm glad you guys didn't have to drive it through that storm. Those icicles on the lug-nuts are crazy.

    So this weekend I backed out the sedan to take it for drive and start putting on some miles...(weather is finally letting up!) and it ran outta gas...go figure. Decided to check the stance...which I like...but there is no fuel in it. I have a few leaves I'm gonna throw in the back and hoping it will sit where I want it with a full tank of gas. I'm starting to get fired back up to finish the last of the details so I can start wearing out some tires:D

  14. A gallon of gasoline weighs 6.073 pounds per US gallon. What's it hold, 10 gallons? Put 60 pounds on the back of it and check the ride height. I really like it.

    I haven't gotten to much more done on the ol fordor... I have been fighting my cooling system. It just wont cool. It turned out to be the thermostat giving me grief. I checked it in boiling water before I installed it to make sure it worked... I guess it gave up its ghost after it went in. Tomorrow I will get another one and hopefully it actually works. Since the fordor was down, I decided it was a good time to start cleaning the garage. There were boxes that I still haven't gone through since we move in...it was time. In order to organize everything, I decided to mock up and bolt some parts and pieces of the next project together and take inventory, as well as free up some shelf space... Now I wish I had a roadster body stashed away that I could throw on the frame... Its summer time and I have roadster fever... Damn you you roadster owners...I want one!!:D Hopefully soon I can start a build thread.

    This is so cool. You've got some really great parts and they're coming together awesomely. Every time I see a firewall on a '32 ch***is is makes me regret getting started on the car I'm working on now instead of the tub however I'm not complaining. Just excited to see you kicking *** on this thing!

    With 18" trim rings to boot. Those are as hard to find as the wheels...
