Don,
That should keep you busy for what . . . a week?
I remember building an all steel car. The parts sure fit better than most of these glass monsters today.

I noticed the Wallace sticker. That was for the 1964 presidential primaries. I remember Wallace's campaigns in '64 and '68 vividly.Jack

Kimda gives ya an idea on how long it's been a hot rod and survived.
Also have an envelope that the tile (which I have also) was mailed to the 2nd owner dated June of 1957. Figure I'm the 4 th ownerWhen I get to where I was goin, I forgot why I went there>

Let's see, 84 years between the first three owners, that's right at 28 years each on the average....

Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

Unloaded, title transferred, interior pulled, took back shelf out and all trunk panels (even found a receipt from 1963) Took the seat up to Tim Rein Interiors 2day and we cut it down and recovered (in 2 1/2 hrs). Got itm back here and stuffed it in and gained 4" of leg room. Great to know the right people who will #1 work 4 ya on a holiday, 2 drop everything else he had goin on, and # 3 when asked ahat I owed him he said "Get out of here, I catch on it later"
Also saw the progress on Henry Rifle's (Jack) 33 coupe Tim is doin 4 him, really coming along great.When I get to where I was goin, I forgot why I went there>
