Well it has been a few weeks since my last picture updates on the Coupe. We have been working hard to be ready for the cruise in Vernon, Tx. Me and Pops rolled it out for the first time since February. Well I have got all my brake and gas lines plumbed in, mounted all my brakes back up, put the motor back in and started welding in my floorboard, got my driveshaft cut down, and am in the process of finding a radiator. Hope to be driving it by next Thursday to Sammy Walkers. Man it has been a blast. I cant wait to smell the fumes.

thanks for all the support. We have been burning the candles at both ends trying to get done. I hit my snooze three or four times in the mornings now. Ain't it fun though. Here is a pic of my pops (Dirty2) I finally got him to turn a wrench on my coupe. He has been such a big help. Thanks pops.

The pictures look good but it is so much better in person.
I am so proud of my son, and his wife for putting up with him , letting him work all hours and having to listen to him talk to her about nothing she knows about!!!!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Yeah he is great. He would rather help out with everyones Hot Rods than make money. There is not many poeple these days you can find that will lend you a helping hand and not be trying to get something (Money) in return. When you decide to start on a project with limited money you learn real quick who is there to help and who is not. He knows alot of the ins and outs and how it should be done. He is a great ambassador for the hot rod community. And I am thankful to have him as a Dad.
