First trip down the road today!!!! Plenty of little bugs to work out but pretty satisfied; it ran good, all the gears work, and it stops. Upholstery wise all I have left is to cover the backseat and make some sill plates and a few trim pieces.1 Corinthians 1:27

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.

Absolutely brilliant. You may wear that smile for several days as you deserve it. I have a friend that has a Plymouth of that same shape, would you mind if I up lifted some photo's of your car as I'm sure he will be impressed and just may motivate him a little ?I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.

Just went back thru your build again, that's a lot of metal work! Congrats on hanging in there, and finishing.
What great quality work, look's amazing! I have a soft spot for the early Mopars, had a 48 Ply Coupe in high school,
sure wasn't as nice as yours though!

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...
