    Glad everything made it back safely--I have good friends!
    Can't wait to see this one on the road.

    Chris, that's outstanding! Build it to keep because the Wife isn't going to let you sell this one because it'll always be the "Wedding Car"!

    Seeing that you're starting with such an original car, you can pretend you're living in the late 40's while you're building your post war Hot Rod.

    Really nice upgrade! You always find great stuff and it is fun to read about the find and trip to get it. Leaving the church in a Vintage car is good luck, we used a 1912 Stanley Steamer 33 years ago. Best wishes for 2011! Bob

    I always enjoy the roadtrip stories and the exciting finds. VERY nice roadster and we all know its in good hands! I'm looking forward to the progress pictures.

    Getting a car ready for a wedding is a great thing. It keeps your mind busy and gives a real deadline to get it done!

    Congrats Chris, That's one sweet little roadster...Thank you so much for a great story, was fun to read. My gal pretty much just puts up with my car hobby... she still can't understand why I traded off my 49 Coupe.. for the 35 5W..But I guess I 'll keep her.. Congrats again..
