Just met Ken
While down in southern California for my sister in law's wedding, I was able to hook up with Ken and his wonderfull wife Tina. Very nice folks. Ken is a true artist! His truck looks even better in person, it might even be as low as Don's T! He graciously showed me his current project as well as a future one that I'm sure he'll disclose when the time is right. Yes his shop is even better in person!Thanks Ken, Steve.
Here are some shots I took of his truck.

Its always good to put a face to someone you just type to all the time.
Live everyday like it were your last, someday it will be.

I didn't even think to ask. He let me see his progress on the 32 which was great. He said he'll post some pictures in the near future for that. The truck sits amazingly low, which to give you a perspective, the shot from behind was from a prius. Has a nice sound to it too! It was neat to see a fellow member and their projects. I couldn't believe the number of hotrods down here. Cool place to visit here are a few more shots from the million dollar breakfast, where we met.

Steve- It was really nice meeting you and part of your family. Like Mooneye said it nice to put a face to someone you communicate with but never meet. When you come down again let me know we will hit all the hot car spots. Thanks for taking the time to stop buy.

Steve, it's nice you got to hook up with Ken. I'm looking forward to meeting him too if and when he gets down my way. Theres a steak with his name on it just waiting.
I know what you mean about putting a face with a name. I got to meet Gastrick and J.Robinson at Daytona, and saw them again along with Hotroddaddy at Billetproof. I really enjoyed that and look forward to meeting more of the guys we gab with all the time.

Dave as long as were talking giveaways, if that Camero starts taking up too much space, I've got a little extra room for her!

Ken we all could trade projects, so that once we are thoroughly frustrated and want a break, we just swap to another project, get some relief and then trade back!
I'm thinking that 32's got you ready for a 48 for a while?

Ok gang. It's been awhile. With everything that was going on taking care of my mom's affairs and making a few needed mods to the Healey, it was June before anything really got rolling on this...
