Howdy from St. Catharines
Permalink  
 

Some of you will know me from the HAMB and from Canadian Rodder, some of you are even lucky enough to have met me in the flesh biggrin

I've got a '51 Ford tudor sedan and a '41 Ford business coupe. Been chipping away at the '51 for a few years, I've rebuilt, replaced, reworked and restyled pretty much every part on the car, questioning my sanity the entire time. Heavily, yet subtly customized, it's getting there... slowly. The '41 is resting comfortably until I can get to it, hopefully before the turn of the next century, the plan is a '50s style tail dragger.

I'm a glutton for punishment.

Welcome from SW Dorchester. I like your project choices! My projects are moving so much slower than I'd like too - don't feel too bad, it's quite common.

Thanks for the warm welcome, everyone.

Chris, I still need to pick up a brush again some day, it's been WAAY too long... but the '51 is going to need some pinstripes so I guess I better get back in practice.

Hey there Fatchuck, it's been a long time. If I can ever get a car on the road I'll start coming out to events again.

Rochie, maybe Jeff will have another party next year and we can raise glasses again. That was a good time.

Now I need to find my way around this place...

Got some '56 Olds headlights in place over the last couple of weekends. Couldn't find any Olds sheet metal to cut up so I made everything but the rings. Not quite done yet, but getting closer...
