    Well.... now I'm bored..... I got the Yard Art all finished and drove it to town for a few errands today. Totaled 38 miles and lots of looks and thumbs ups.

    I'd post pics but as you all know.... I'm totally incapable of such high tech stuff.... I can build a car out of stuff from the garden but can't seem to upload a stinkin picture!! Help me out again Eric!

    I like it Geno. Now you need to get the wife to take some of you driving it.
    Nice fan shroud.

    Lota of neat stuff to look at.... I used wrenches all over the car, check out the inside roof, salt shakers for front turn signals, whisky bottle for coolant tank, small wrenches for the windshield tip-out post fasteners, wrench license plate holder, just to name a few. I had a blast doing this car!

    Its great to see that it's not the usual SBC. I like to see odd-ball engines in hot rods like yours. Very nicely done!

    i like it. im going to be building something from scratch here soon. i traded an jazzy style electric chair i bought at the thrift store for a 100 bucks , for a model a cowl and a few other parts. i like your long car. its different . and you didnt chop the top way down where you have to lay down to drive it. cool.

    Time for a new project, Geno. Next time start with something a little rougher, and put a really unusual motor in it. That'll take longer...

    Ooops! You already did that.

    Man, I'm out of suggestions...

    :(

    Geno, don't worry about your computer skills, that build is quite a talent. A real head turner and looks like a blast to drive.
