Great picture!! I had to save that one...
Well it is summer and it is for sure HOT, here in Bama heat index has been over 105 for 10 days or so. We do have humidity here and in spades today it was 98 right outdside the shop and the humidity was 58% man. I have been working in the shop at night for 2 weeks or so, don't even go out there until 7:00 PM and usually work until Midnight or 1:00 am, much better that way---I Think---.
However as hot as it is here, there's always some were hotter. last year about this time of year I was driving to California on I40, I went thru Needles at 3:00AM in the morning ( did that on purpose as I wanted to drive that desert at night) In Needles at 3:00AM it was 103 Degrees, now man thats "HOT"

It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

It's midnight in St Louis it's a beautiful 85* w/the heat index of 94* and the humidity is 70%.
But you should have been here last week, it was 96* and the humidity was 99% and it wasn't raining

Finally hit 100 Aug 1st. I think I saw 102 at the house. Around 100 last couple of days and high pressure so they say it will be here for awhile. I just know it's almost too danged hot to work in the garage, although I did manage to mostly finish the new dash in my rod. Looking forward to fall..........

For sure!! I recall Jim's torsion bar suspension on at least one of his builds, but I'm not sure which one! Maybe the Track T?? He's a talented builder.
