    No rest for the wicked Tommy. Gotta do the late nights in the shop to make my hot rod dreams come true. 4-5hrs sleep per night , that's how I maintain my rosie disposition .
    Thanks for the info on the cowl.

    Ray, another great scratch build, you can be proud. In this 1-800 checkbook build world, it is very nice to see your build thread, which takes me back to the mid-50s in a shed behind my old man's grocery store putting my $50 '47 Ford tudor together with a few mongrel tools, a rope engine hoist and a drop light. Hopefully I'll get to see it in person this year.

    This is 100% why I love ray. Everybody else needs the magic unobtanium gadget shit that costs an arm and a leg, and he's making cars outta people's castaways.
