Projects Recreating the jesse lopez coupe

What the "adventure" can look like sometimes when you're trying to get things right.

 

With electricity, and insulation.

 

This is one of my most favorite pics of this build.

 

I'm still alive, details to follow.

 

At this time in my life, I need peace, I need predictability, I need to know how things work. That's not asking for much, is it?

The big “OH NO!” Is We're moving again, still under the same roof at the “old folks” home. We are in a much nicer, larger 2-bedroom apartment. We used the same moving company that we used last time. But, with all we’ve been through this year, this was a bit more than we could handle. After being sedentary these last years, all this is revealing our limitations and how we must know what we can and can’t do.

When our kids realized what had happened, they stepped it up a notch and have made a big difference. So, one more realization about our new status. Growing old isn’t for sissies. I’ve seen this somewhere. We’re getting ready to move some cars.

 

As promised.

 

Welcome to your new home....to you and the cars!

 

Everything is kinda up in the air right now.

 

Haha!!

 

So you’re saying you can feel it coming in the air tonight?

 

After giving this much thought, I think the answer is,,,,,,YES.

 

With Christmas here and all the distractions that it brings regarding our project to move everything to Dans shop, a much needed "breather" is in order. Dans response to my harping about the green car falling down unto the red car is uncontrolled laughing. I guess that helps

 

It fell off the lift?

 

My imagination, it didn't.

 

This makes me feel a whole lot better. Thanks Dan.

 

It's all coming together,

Merry Christmas - all that distraction is the very reason we have hope for the future

Thanks for the updates

 

Thanks Outback and Merry Christmas to you and yours (and everyone else).I was hacked yesterday and am unable to show the usual pic, but when I get the computer back from the shop I will.

 

As I just said MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU AND EVERYONE YOU HOLD DEAR.

 

HAPPY NEW YEAR everybody!

 

Happy New Year Jerry!!

 

Happy new year Jerry

What a beautiful car, should make you proud.

 

Dave! thanks much for the fine complement. This actually is the first time I've thought about the "pride" part of my experience doing this car. I've been in the shadow of the privilege part for all this time.

 

I can appreciate your perspective on that. The original design and execution had already been done but the passion, skillset and perseverance to honor it correctly need not be downplayed.

 

I should have shown this one with the finished car. This is the starting point.

 

My computer is messed up again, stay tuned.

 

I'm back, Dan is building an office storage area for his shop. This is the floor.

 

Having trouble loading pics, hang on
