  5. Sonny, I can't wait to see it up close and personal. Hopefully I can get a trip up north before the MidAm Street Rod Nats. ;-)

    Here is a pic of my grandpa’s ‘40. He owned this when he married my grandma. Skirts and shortened hood trim. Not a skirt guy but my parents have owned a ‘40 standard coupe since ‘84.

    Guys, the ole girl is leaving her home of 79 years and is moving to Missouri today. The owner was sad to see her go and hopes that I will pamper her like he did which I assured him that I would take good care of the ole gal. I hope she likes her new home as much as I like seeing her come and stay the rest of my life. And I made a very nice new friend out of the deal; life just can't be better. IMG_0663 (1).JPG

    It's amazing what a simple stance and tire change can do to a 40. That coupe is perfect with just a few simple alterations done to it.

  20. @LOWDUG37, I can assure you that it has found a FANTASTIC home with Sonny. I am looking forward to seeing it when Sonny brings it down to Springfield, MO, for a visit.

    39guy-my time about 450 hrs-plus wife's time-10-11 weeks. Paint etc took a good while and was stalled for uph for 4 months as well-he was backed up a good bit.
    Been driving it around a bit to get bugs out between rain storms-all good-drives great and the 327 is pretty spunky too.
