We'll look forward to some pictures of your project!
Hey Don---Hope you're still alive and still hotrodding!!! I still drive the "Wild Canary" on a daily basis thru the summer months, but its gone to bed for the winter now. My Christmas newsletter from Brent just showed up on my computer, and I seen a link to this thread and thought I'd say Hi and Merry Christmas.----Brian in Barrie---2012
Merry Christmas Brian ,,Don hasn't been on here for quit some time.
Yep! Merry Christmas Brian. Missed seeing you and your hobbies.. LOL.. We all miss Don too!
Merry Christmas, Brian! I haven't seen anything from you for quite a while. I miss your explanations and Solid Works drawings.
Everyone - If you want to find Don, look for him over on T-Bucket Forums under the name Donsrods.

Merry Christmas Brian, and Don too if he happens to check in here any more.
I think we just hit the one year anniversary of Don posting to this site. Hope he & the family are OK - and MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE !
I don't post to this site much but I've read thru alot of this build thread - WOW, you guys really do put a lot of hours into these build projects. Helps me gain new perspective on my restoration projects - building stuff from scratch is MUCH more challenging.
Hey, it's good to hear from Brian Rupnow who was helpful to me in the early years of my build (2003-2012). I direct him to the thread on "Zips Riser" where I have a picture of my '29 roadster which was started about the same time as Brian's Canary but he rapidly got ahead of me. I am currently adding up a lot of receipts for the build and I can tell this thread that even doing a lot of the work yourself it is easy to go over $25K using a prefab 'glass body and rebuilt running gear (along with some first class stuff from Brookville). I did splurge on some fancy things like stainless top irons and stainless bumpers from Bratton's but then you need to consider that the chromed items that are only about 20% cheaper will flake if damaged so you get drawn into the quality of stainless parts from Brattons! It was interesting to me that the Bebops 'glass body dimensions are close enough to stock that much of the stuff I got from Brattons fit as good as if the body was metal!

Bebop's nice folks. I've replaced my running boards, and fender lowers in front, with their fiberglass panels. All seem very strong, well made!
