    Dang well I may look into that thanks! Sorry for late response been super busy lately. Right now I've got two fours on it and it runs great may leave them on for a while!

    So the first show I went to was the NSRA Nats South in Knoxville! Ended up winning a Pros' Pick award there which I was stoked about. Just got back from Goodguys Nashville where I won the Traditional Homebuilt Heaven award! I guess hard work pays off I couldn't have done it without my Dad and supportive family and friends along the way!

    Ben, congrats on the wins, well deserved, just one sweet ride...Jim
     
  3. Congrats on the awards! The car looks great and deserves it. Hard work does pay off.
     
  4. I'm not much on awards, but it's sure nice to know that hard work and good workmanship is noticed and appreciated. Well deserved. You have an awesome coupe in every aspect.

    WOW that is a very nice car you built . Love the color and stance . Good thing you have the Chevrolet on the back the uneducated will call it a Ford.
     
  9. I checked out your car in Decatur last weekend. Its nicer up close than in photos. Hard to believe you started with a beat up old round tracker.

    Thanks! Sure has gotten more attention than I expected!

    Thanks it was definitely an honor! Should be featured in StreetRodder sometime soon!

    Thanks and yes some already have!

    Thanks are you going to Louisville coming up in a week or so?

    Thanks! I've got a 34 Buick I'm going to get rolling (Fatman MII and 4 linked rear) and a 66 Bel Air I need to sell then may be time to start on another ground up build!

    Naw man don't believe so. Where/when is the TRJ revival? I will be at Shades of the Past in Pigeon Forge, TN the first weekend of September, probably Coker tire cruise in Chattanooga, TN the second weekend of September, and finally the Redneck Rumble in Lebanon, TN the third weekend of September. Then it's time to get back to work on some of my other junk!

    You did a wonderful job! But where did all the photos go? From page one on, 90 percent are missing (for me at least). Gary

  21. Just wanted to add my congrats to your car's selection and associated Street Rodder article. I followed your build on the HAMB, and I dare say that your car's selection was well-earned. It was nothing less than a first-class build, and it warms my heart to see a Chevy hot rod get top honors.
     
  22. Congrats Ben, just got my issue today! The Chevy looks great!
