  1. I sure hope the body stays where it is supposed to be for the rest of my life.I don't think that I will have to remove it again but I guess you can't be too sure about some things when you are messing with old cars.......LOL

    I've been on the HAMB for five years but had never noticed this thread. Just spent over 2 hours reading every post from beginning to end. This is an utterly fantastic story with the kind of ending many of us dream about. You are creating a genuine time machine. Wonder what will happen when you hit 88 MPH? You might not be transformed into your 16 y/o self but I'll bet you'll feel like it. Subscribed and eagerly awaiting the next chapter.

  10. Stumbled onto this thread for the first time today while I was waiting on the ladies shopping and just finished reading the whole thing. What a great story! I never parted with my first car but it hasn’t been on the road in nearly 30 years. You’re making quicker progress than me, so keep pushing!

  11. In the early stages of planning to move this fall to Southern Ontario where we have family. I know the '39 will be coming with us but not sure yet about the ' 32 coupe or the track roadster. Will keep you posted.....

  13. As it turns out, I don't think we will be moving just yet. Maybe somewhere down the line but not yet ....
