I finally got the hard drive out of my broken lap top and loaded the pics to my new one.... boring I know.... but... I added a pic of the three cars that I have built; '37 Ford flatback, '26 Ford roadster, and my '36 Ford coupe. I have great stories on all of them. Sold one to build the other... the 26 was built in half of a two car garage in two years, sold it to build a shop and the 37 Ford that the parts came from 9 states and took 4 years to build, sold it to buy the 36 and drove it back from Nebraska then tore it down and rebuilt everything including repaint and interior. Sold it to payoff the house and boat. that's how it works, right? Wish I still had all of them! Also added a '32 Ford roadster Bonneville car that we ran at 214 last year that a good buddy and I built. Check them out! Eric... you can post them if you choose!!! I'm still a dummy in that way. I can build a car but... not post it!!!
Dang geno! Those are some sweet rides. The Bonneville pic is gorgeous. The most impressive thing about those rides is that you built them. I would be happy to exchange some picture-posting knowledge for some car building knowledge!
I make two 'baby books" on all the cars for two purposes..... one for selling power and one for me to remember what I did for when the grand kids are old enough to see what gramps did before and after they were born. Great memories these cars! I get more out of the build than I do driving them. I just sell a pile of ***mebled parts. I got to be the one that enjoyed all the engineering and part finding. If interested I can give details about each one if someone asks. As you all know, each car has it's own personality and challenges.
