As one who saw the condition of the Chevy after it was pulled from a flooded bean field, I can honestly say that this is magic on wheels.

OK, sports fans.
Remember the motorcycle crash I went through. Went they rebuilt me I got to keep the parts after the Doc took them out of me. I was thinking that pelvis rod would make a super throttle link so here it is.

Well it's been a while. I drove my car to Mr. Frosty's and it was a blast. in years past we would go but this year I was able to take my car. I decided to take some pictures. The car has had many bugs but the bugs are mostly dead now. I still like a bit of interior work that I will be taking care of soon. It's been so much fun ,but I've must say driving it is better...

David
Your car is beautiful and all your hard work shows. Working out the 'bugs' and finishing the different odds and ends is much easier once you get to enjoy the fruits of your labor

Thank You Guys!!
It was so swamped with bugs my Wife wouldn't ride in it, and Mom barely could be talked into riding. The break down to ride ratio was 1/1 for a while.
