Fuel tank is still out of it, I don't think there is enough fuel in the carb to get us out past the mailbox but we can try.

That's easy!
We'll take turns holding a jug of fuel, while perched on the roof.
I'll drive first, then it'll be your turn, OK?

Just through his builds over on IH8MUD. I've corresponded with him a little via email, nothing more. The work he does is IMPRESSIVE!

I have a 17 year old cousin that lives in Georgia that can do amazing things with cars. I've watched him work and come to the conclusion that you guys that can do this are artists. It goes far beyond just "auto body work". Cant wait to watch the rest of your build

He is done with it? When we were there last year, I was in awe just looking at it and it was all tore apart yet. It is an awesome car. Very talented.
I am out of order until further notice. My "stupid people" filter needs cleaning and my "give a damn" batteries have run out.

Looking great! Body work is right up there with my least favored past times, almost as bad as drywall work. But the end result will be well worth it.

I don't think he would mind me posting a few pics here. Powered by a modern Ford V-10 and Auto trans from a big E-series van, a bunch of the suspension components and final drive are from a wrecked pontiac I think, brand new. Part of a delivery traveling by rail that wrecked, zero miles. Larry is a real artist, the woodwork is simply beautiful, the whole car is. ![[Linked Image]](http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm259/henryj429/Picture003-1.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm259/henryj429/Picture004-4.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm259/henryj429/Picture002-2.jpg)

I went out to start on the car tonight and a buddy stopped by, after he left I had to put a CV boot back on an ATV so the boy could drag the driveway... kept popping off, the boot clamp wasn't squeezing tight enough in the locked position so I heated the ring cherry red and quenched it to shrink it a little. Seems to be working.
But now the night is pretty well shot, so no car work today.

That is a work of art. I'd love to see it in the sunlight.
