and this hot rod coupe should have been in a special parking area because of it's history....
instead it was kinda hidden and parked in a shady area that was hard to showcase it.

our good friend Rick (ricksherl)from OK who owns a wonderful 57 Chevy but decided to build his first hot rod coupe ever at age 60 after sitting in the parking lot at Joplin at the Hamb drags a couple years ago. He did a good job and this was the first drive for this car ever---
Like a true hot rodder---Rick taught himself how to weld and how to paint while building this car. It is not done yet but he has 1 year and 3 months in it so far and told me how his 87 year old father with bad vision came and helped him work on it some afternoons.
