LIFESTYLZ,how are you mate??yeah,more stuff on the go soon,junk is endless..well,at list for a good while!! Tom is on holidays still with his family,we restart soon on the Merc...But is comin out killer for sure...still lot to do,but you start seeing the flowin lines already...all bare metal! How's your Lincoln??Already chopped ???Post som pix for all to see catch ya soon, Sled
yeah guys,sometimes is really surrealistic down here...so many contrasts....but you don't get bored for sure!!
Sled: Just a normal cruise in DF and you bet you can always see some new stuff around sittin in the streets...mind you,nowadays there is a govermental program against not registed cars layin around...they tow em away pretty quick! And to go find em in the police car corral is a game too...it cost some good bucks to take it out too... That's why there are not many old cars sittin abandoned in DF anymore,at list not like 5 and more years ago...10 years ago this place was almost an open space junkyard!!
Sled: Well,looks like that in Mexico there are many more 3w Fords than 5w,at list according to my hunting experience...cool,but strange!!Anyway, this 36 has been fully restored in stock form...lovely lines as usual...such cars are timeless and to me they will look even better in 20 years..Actually im workin on couple others,still sittin and waitin to be rescued!!
MagnusB,thanks as usual buddy...workin on more,recently im movin back also on old bikes,Hd's ,Indians and old Bmw's...tryin to get a 47 Knuckle now...complete but apart,will see how it goes...Sled
Jeeze Sled, you really find the cool shit don't you! Just out of curiosity, how far have you shipped cars before?You must have had some overseas customers I would think.
Fencepost86,yeah...i have worldwide customers...i do send containers all over the world with cars and some bikes too.... Hey,today is a cool day,very hectic but lot of fun..just found a lot of 50's Cadillacs in a barn,including a 59 series 62 convertible ,a 56 convertible (probably Eldorado) and couple more in 1 place...then running elsewhere a 40's Cadillac herse commplete with old aged paint..tomorrow have to meet the owner of this one,LOVE gothic hearses...have to buy this one!! And found an old Bmw R51/3 disassembleb but complete... And a 58 Edsel,but is a moredoor,i don't count this.... well,gotta go..still more work to do...later Sled
