Projects The Covered Wagon Deuce Sedan Build Complete With Crummy Cell Phone Pictures

Today was the day. About 15 trouble free miles. Ran great and did all the stuff that a car is supposed to do. I couldn’t be more thrilled.

 

Dude! That's awesome and the car looks great!!! Congrats on the 15 trouble free miles!!!!

That fire station looks great too!

3blap.

 

Oh baby, oh baby!!
Looking good!

 

Big congrats !

Chop seams look excellent too !

 

Thanks guys I'm psyched. Hoping to bring it to the Gathering of the Faithful in a couple weeks.

 

Happy to see at long last you are on the road....

 

Thanks a lot. It was almost four years ago this car looked like this and probably hadn't moved under it's own power for 50 years.



Also I just noticed that half of my images they don't show up maybe because I used the now defunct IG function to upload them. Guess I'll need to go back and try to fix that.

 

Looks great! Congrats on getting it on the road.

congrats john. glad you got to drive it!

 

Congrats John, feels good doesn't it?
Want to travel to the "gathering" together? We will probably be passing by your watch city anyway. . .

 

Thanks Steve. I'm looking forward to seeing whatever creation you come up with next.

Sounds like a plan. Just sent you a pm.

 

The car had a successful 100 mile outing to the Gathering of the Faithful last weekend. Thanks @wheeldog57 for the picture, I was too amped up to even take one.

 

..back in the saddle again?...with another Olds Rocket powered Ford.

How about another. Your car has " the look" John, well done!

spiff...

 

I told my son that we’d be getting ice cream in a hot rod this year and while I was a little late I caught an unseasonably warm day and kept my promise.

 

^^I'd make real photos of that in case the digital ones get lost somehow. priceless moments...

Thanks @F&J I asked my wife for framed prints of this for Christmas, it was definitely a priceless moment. My son has seen me working on a lot of old cars and motorcycles but they usually get sold before we get a chance to have very much fun in them. I promised myself the 32 would stick around long enough to infect him with the gear head bug but who knows how many years or thousands of miles that might take!

 

looks great

 

Great job DAD

 

Out for a ride last week and running great. Interior is in process so more updates hopefully soon.

 

Great job!
Your pics of you and your boy really struck a nostalgic chord. What a special moment.

 

You got that right Bill, that photo is too cool! HRP

 

Congrats, looks awesome, and time spent with your son is priceless!!!

 

Couple more fromtheGathering back in October. Spring can’t get here soon enough.

 

Good for you Dad. Neato..

Yours is the perfect hotrod cruiser Great looking got the stance and can go anywhere

 

The front seats that were in the car were donors that were only ever going to get used for the frame and seat tracks, I sent them to my buddy who does upholstery and they're done. I'll be installing soonish. With 6 inches of snow on the ground I am currently in no hurry.
