Sweet, looks like fun
Keep at it. Don't let the whole "girl" thing wreck your mojo. My Mom was a Tech Sgt in the Womans Air Corp back in the 40's and 50's repairing...
Daaaaaaang ! Nice looking shop. A person could build a cool thing or two in there
My new build [IMG] to make this one nicer [IMG] The wrecked one hid out in a barn for 46 years so its really solid. The blue one spent its life up...
Thanks barn Find. It sure doesn't look like that anymore. I made some good progress on the frame mounts for the front bumper this weekend. Next...
Eddie, nope the monkey isn't for sale. Goose no there is no odor from it. It was in a barn for 46 years untouched/molested
So sorry man. You are not supposed to bury your children in this game of life. I can't imagine the grief you're going thru
Roger, I know, I suck at telling stories and putting up pics. I'm getting the itch back now that I live somewhere I can do some wrenching at. I...
Here is the humble beginnings of my new build. I unbolted all savable parts and cut off all the ugly , mangled metal to expose the starting point...
Sounds like a crappy time, but you're right. If you cant fix 'em, better buy a trailer. I've had some "FUN" times on a run too, but it makes for a...
No kidding ! I recently moved from the Ann Arbor area to the Philly area. Damn, might be an excuse to go visit some friends and family again

I know. i know. I suck ! Been busy raising a 4 yr old granddaughter and my Caddy"s are at a coworkers house 1 1/4 hour from my place. I will be...
Nice progress. Hoping to get some wrench time in this weekend on mine
Looks incredible Nads. Nice honor to have it shown there
Nice update Roger. Congrats on all the awards. And yes autocrossing in a Kustom Cadillac IS a hoot. Can't wait till I get to try the new C4...
Look in the thread dangest thing found in an old car
The LaSalle is Brians, PhatCaddy's here on the HAMB. Bitchin car
I say midnight blue for the carpet would look great. Black would look boring. Just my .02
Sweet, good to see progress on a chopped 55 Caddy. I suck since my plans to work on mine over Christmas got jammed in the butthole.
Congrats Roger, well deserved
Caddy's don't deserve a belly button motor. I kept the 55 331 mill out of my new project Caddy, just in case I want to build a retro hot rod,...
Looking like some good progress. Love the original engine
Snails pace would be an improvement.
Looking good so far. Don't worry, my only WTF moments are when I'm awake. Think I'm gonna go get a chocolate bar now. Mmmmmmm
Nice project
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm, skirts. Yummy
Yaaaaaaaay. I was hoping it didn't have to go down the road. We have to show those left coasters how its done with our chopped 55 Caddy's. As...
