Well now...…….that had to be one nifty day with the first ride. There's one vid missing. Where's the full on smoky burnout, black stripes down your street, and cranky neighbors running out of their houses, cursing and shaking their fists?

It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

Now that's a hot rod. Slight rake, mild chop, Hemi with 2x4's and a straight axle. It doesn't get any better than that.Ken Thomas

Thank' for the kudo's guys ! It's been 10 years to reach this point.
No burn outs yet Bob, soon though! Several neighbors were in the
garage for the start up. Took my son for the first ride, and my grandson
After that.
Have to fix a couple problems, tach, and water temp not working.
I have a Moon Eyes temp thermometer in the therm housing which
is showing 165 so not worried. Plates, and insurance next!http://www.clubhotrod.com/hot-rod-bu...del-coupe.html

Uncle Bob, I suspect he's fibbing a little on the burnout. Did you notice the "California" stop at that stop sign and the quick shot to the garage at the return?

Well I finally got the fenders on, and everything sorted out. Real happy with the ride
, and handling. Only thing left is hook up headlight wiring, quick connects no problem.
Here's a couple pics.
