    Completely understand the NOCHOP plate, but it's funny with that exhaust note.

    Probably can’t tell up from down with all the grinning I’m sure you’ve been doing having that hot rod on the road!

    how was the first drive?

    A little buggy, steering isn’t returning to straight, need a tougher return spring, temperature gauge isn’t responding and puffing a little blue smoke which concerns me. My neighbor builds race motors is going to ride with me to set the rings. Cam was set by the builder…..I hope

    thanks. Just a side note, since my folks have passed I have always named the random dove pairs after my folks. On Friday (the day I started the car) a dove flew in and over the car and flew out.

  19. Winston -

    Congratulations!

    On a side note, I just now figured out that you live only .7 miles away from me! . . . I always knew we lived in the same city . . . but always assumed you were on the other side of town [‘cuz that’s where I always saw you driving your Deuce 5wd Coupe (when it was in primer)] . . . I’d love to stop by your house sometime . . . and checkout your bitchin’ Deuce 5wd Coupe in person!

    - Todd

    Great meeting you & your wife today!

    Your (father's) Deuce 5wd Coupe looks even better in person!

    Thanks for the ride . . . gives me even more incentive to get my (father's) Deuce 5wd Coupe back on the road again.

    Thanks also for the great conversation . . . sorry that I "talked your ear off" :)

    - Todd

    @nochop
    You are Getting their ,
    Pic @ Ace , must been picking up bolt screw Hardware ,
    By chance did you ever find Stock patterns for interior for the 5w's?
    Or did You & Wife make your Own ?
    I am still looking here & there for
    Stock interior or patterns,
    I was thinking even Over in
    Australia, Europe ,Sweden, Germany somebody would have stock interior.
    Even with All the 32s in California I'm surprised there's no one there with stock interior !!

    Needed a gear clamp for the primary carburetor air cleaner. I too am amazed that no interior panel patterns are available. Even roadster panels would be good. My wife and I my start the interior this winter.
