Welcome to CHR Grits/Gary. When you have time tell us about your Model A and even post up some pictures of what you're doing.Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

Thanks for the welcome guys,
I'll get more pictures up as soon as I learn a little more about how this forum works.
I've built several custom bikes over the years and always loved them, I broke my back a few years ago and the wifey said "No More Bikes". Well, that ended that, so, I decided to try building cars instead.
The 30 coupe in my avatar was the first go at building cars and now I've started on a 27 T coupe for my next trick. The coupe was all original when I started with it, thought about keeping it that way "NOT", I've always dreamed of building a hot rod and did just that with the coupe. As far as the mill, started with a basic Chevy 350 4 bolt I had laying around. After a lot of work, I'm pushing over 400 horses, seems to work well.

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.
