Did you finally get your project on the road in 2012?

I realize Ryan posted a what's your favorite car from 2012 but this thread is for everyone that was finally able to drive that static piece of art that has been in the garage way too long.

By now I'm sure your all sick of seeing the "Ranch Wagon" but after 9 long years was a driver in 2012,, HRP

 

No pics with me at work, but finally got my 57 chevy 2door hardtop 210 on the road this year. Bought it in 4th grade, a mere 23 years ago! between money, school and moving around it finally got done, no bolt left unturned.

 

Almost, well I did drive around the neighborhood some, but my rear brakes started dealing me a fit a while back.

 

finally finished my t bucket and traded it for the buick

 

That is beautiful, I could never get sick of seeing your ranch wagon.

 

No.

But cool to see that you did. Nine years . . . sounds about right.

 

Bought my Olds in 2001, got it running in time for the Old Time drags.
Me and my Bro's Fleetline.

 

just with a more reliable 100% new motor and tranny

 

Finished my roadster after 18 months.
Lee

 

No. (sigh)

 

took 3 years but its on the road

 

A couple of great fleetlines there Jeff.

 

No, but it's only been 7 years.

 

Got the coupe done after a ONE YEAR THRASH.



Thought i would add a pic given to me by the guy who bought it in Colorodo.
It was pretty complete except the headlihts, the rest of the parts were inside the car.

 

No, but I hope to have it on the road this year. Should be in paint by end of the 1st quarter....I hope.

 

Yep!!! Still gotta narrow down a few loose ends but I drove the son of a bitch a good bit this past fall!

 

Nope. Probably going to sell off all of the parts, ditch the storage unit, and pay off some medical bills.

 

Nope hopefully this year. That wagon kicks ass HRP!!!

 

Man I wish. I got nothing done this year. My goal is to have the metal and fab work done this year. Keeping my fingers crossed

Crap, I havn't even gotten it into the garage yet. maybe finish one by the time 3012 comes around...

 

I just started to collect parts for my project in 2012. Long ways to go.

 

I thought the same thing.I got a few new projects in 2012 but nothing going .My Cadillac don't count.

 

Put "MR 800" on the road in the spring 2012....

 

....yup, after 12 years and many struggles.....

 

Crap, I just got the bitch home on the 22nd, what's the hurry?? The stupid carb isn't even bolted down or hooked up.

 

Danny,

Wish I could've had the '56 on the road by now, but I'm hoping to have it going by the end of this summer!

 

I got nothing,
but Congrats to all those that did finish their projects up in 2012.
There were some really great build threads to watch.

 

Bought her in mariana, az. Bagged it with some friends a few weeks later
