    Just found this thread. Excellent build Yaril, on one fine Ford shoebox! Congrats on the awards; you deserve them!
     
  6. Got too see the car in person at the grand natl show and then tonight on my way home from work I stopped by industrial chassis and got to see the car in person and meet the road crew and the car is just stunning in person with ropes in the way. Great build and even better story of the road trip. Took some photos at industrial chassis and will post the when I get a chance.

    I also saw it last night at ABACOA. I knew it had to be nice to get all of the awards in Ca.but the car is so much nicer than the pictures. Also it was great meeting you in person. Look forward to seeing you again and I will try to stop by the shop. Also I was talking to Larry this morning and if you come up to his shop again I could meet you there. Bill Carroll

    i gotta live up to my insanity, so we have taken the Shoebox apart and yesterday we sanded the hole car down with 500 and then 600. going to spot some areas that got "road wear" and reclear the car, wet sand and buff, and assemble it again.

    Round 2 - Kansas July 29 KKOA here we come!

    Buff? Why? It will be perfectly flat anyway! But seriously, definitely insane. That's for sure. Good luck. Hope to see you there.

    That car just keeps getting better. Have fun on the trip to Salina and this time see if you can travel at a bit more relaxed pace so you can see something besides gas stations and fast food joints.

    the day they build a bridge to Europe i will drive across it!

    steal some gas for me too! ima need it, 1700 miles each way.

    just trying to make it better. hope to see you there too!

    thats the plan. leave at midnight on Monday so i will have 2 or 3 days to get there. that should be no problem! im want to be there by Thursday.

    if anyone is interested in a shirt, it will help pay my gas to get to Salina, KS. sorry for the shameless plug moderators.

    car sanded in 500 followed by 600 wet.

    underside of hood i never got around to (time constraints), so i cleaned it up a bit with bed liner spray as i did the bottom of the floors.

    [​IMG]

    gotta pull a few more things off and mask the car, only a couple spots will need base. most of the body is really nice and will get recleared. almost there.

    i got about 5 weeks till departure.
