Still gettin' ink and trophies---
I haven't been posting much lately---My business has been very busy, and I haven't really had much to post about. I have been attending the local rod runs and car shows, and just found out this week that there was another picture of the RPU in a new newspaper in town. My tophy collection is slowly growing, and I am enjoying the summer weather. Hi to all my friends on Clubhotrod---May your projects all soon be finished, and may you all have as much fun with them as I have been having with mine.---BrianOld guy hot rodder

".......Still gettin' ink and trophies--- ......"
Quality builds tend to do that Brian. I remember following your build like I do Don's. ( Even though it seems that Don has said he is not building a show car....I suspect he will end up with a with a similiar display once his is on the road.)
It's amazing what someone with skill and a bit of experience can do with a pile of parts.
Congrats.I've NEVER seen a car come from the factory that couldn't be improved.....

Thanks for all the kind words, guys. I have been venturing a bit farther afield with the RPU this summer. The only problem is "old man syndrome"---thats where I hate to go much farther than 40 miles to an evening show, because its all sunny and warm and beautifull when I leave here right after supper, but then by the time the show is over at 9:00 PM its getting cooler and darker, and not nearly as much fun driving home with no side windows. Jeez---I've turned into an old wuss!!! The car is working really great, and it still gets a lot of attention. I am looking foreward to a couple of weeks holidays with my good wife. ---Nothing that will compare to our magnificent California trip last summer, but at least something that will get me away from the computer for a couple of weeks. Funny, isn't it---this past winter when I had no work I nearly went nuts worrying about it---Now, after an 8 week contract, I don't want any work for a while.---Damn, some people are just never satisfiedOld guy hot rodder

Way to go Brian!!!
I too haven't been around much, been twisting brain cells and turning big blocks of metal to a pile of chips.
Glad to see you're enjoying your ride and the nice weather we've been having.
Give me a shout sometime if you'd like.
