LMAO ..... take out that wall at the end and install an overhead door......then make her happy by letting her operate the remote to it.....

Guys - you have been an real "inspiration".

When it's all over and done with, you couldn't ask for a better wife. She actually puts up with my antics that is, as long a few honey-dos get done along the way - and I almost enjoy the change of pace. I've totally taken over the oversize (in today's world) 2 car garage, most of the basement and now the living room just to put one not so simple car together. Luckily - we do have a family room that is actually bigger then the living room, and since the LR is only used a few times a year when the kids and the thundering herd of grandchildren show up, it's become a reasonably safe haven for completed parts. I have promised her that she can retake "possession" of most of the house before the summer is over.

Dave, this can be a win-win situation. Send me the art work along with the car. That way she gets the living room back and you get the garage back.

When you come down for the York Nats I will let you visit with your car and the art work. Assuming that is that I am not out enjoy the 32.

Bob,
She may have the LR back by the end of May - and the car about together. Yeah. Sure!! I said that last year, but it wasn't painted then.

You'll be happy to hear that I just wrote the check for my swap meet stall. With any luck (like last year, hopefully) I should be about sold out by Sat late AM and be able to wander the fairgrounds while leaving my truck in it's parking place. With the price of gas, hotel and food - I might just break even

Oh, by the way - it's "only" a '31 roadster , so not quite so desirable to most as a deuce

Dave - I knew it was a 31 but something made me type 32. Doesn't really matter, I know I can enjoy it regardless of age. My father in law has a 31 Loboy. I enjoy it has a passenger, but not as a driver. Just too damn cramped behind the wheel for an old, tall, fatty like me.

That's all right Bob, CRS gets all of us eventually.
As far as size, a '31 is only marginally smaller then the '32. I have seats that go w-a-a-a-y back. I'm old, fairly tall at 6'4" but not too fat. Yet, but working on my girth. Gone from a loose 36 waist to a snug 38 since I retired and dammed uncomfortable

Never, never, never will my wife control the remote if I'm watching the boob tube.

Ya know - there are double windows........
