Hey, someone buy my '49 Chevy or '37 or the Vette body so I can keep this !!! don't really wanna sell it.
I'm driving my '49 Chevy and will bring parts and pics of all projects to the Des Moines swap this Fri-Sat. Bring yer cash !
Going to Nostalgia Drags Saturday at Eddyville, IA and will bring pics. Car is 2 hours NW of there. Cash and a trailer... git a g***er! hrt
oh no! Spent too much time at Back to the Fifties digging the HJs up there. May need to sell my '49 and other stuff more now and transfer efforts to the J? Gonna be at Des Moines Good Guys fersure, hoping I can also get to Lincoln this weekend with the '49. Come!
Surprised no one came through with cash here... Burned out with tire-kickers and story-tellers. Is no one buying/building projects anymore, just looking for parade-ready car for price of a used Yugo or something? I know price is not crazy - you try to build it for less. Not discounting it anymore, I guess I gotta do more floor, finish ch***is, then add more $$$ for the work done. Q: Shall I install LT1/4L60e (add $3k?) or try again later with no engine/trans? hey hot rodders and racers, my kids swear all my stuff is crusher food once I croak (they hate car stuff - family history), so don't be waiting for a huge discount or auction. Hoping someone really does want it. It would be disrespectful to myself to give it away cheap. Shame to waste these old cars, eh...
BTT. Maybe? Anyone wanna take over, or must I finish it before moving on to my coupe? I could use cash, but not any more "trade" projects, got plenty. You serious about a solid Henry J hot rod project with a lot done, please call. If just looking to lowball me or B.S., save the dime.
Well, spent all summer/Fall farting around with my '34, so no progress, yet. Too busy hanging out, cruisin.' HJ is still for sale, sort of. Don't call if you're just trying to steal it. I probably will devote time December to finishing floor, rear susp, etc. and will reprice accordingly. Hey, kids, are we having fun yet?!?!? whoo hoo! Still cruising weather !
