A good friend of mine told me when I was going to sell it to "keep my dignity" , and I did. Walked away with my head up. I had much more into it, but never did anything to this car as a investment, only pure enjoyment.

I will miss it, but I did everything I wanted to with the car. I know of only one other that could compare in looks and that was Jim Angels down in LA, (not including George's extreme car). It was fast, but without major more dollars poured into the car again, it still would not as fast as these cars should be. Plus the weak tranny issue just kills it for a speed car.

I will probably have a lot to say about many things, LoL. But for now, it's sold.
Right now I have my 52 Plymouth in the shop to re-locate the front king pins to get a 3 inch drop in the front end and still keep full spring and shock action.

CJ I plan on driving the 52 there this summer. I have a line on two overdrives for it. I will do carburetor rebuild and be good to go. It is in the shop right now getting the front end lowered.

Thanks for all the kind words everyone.
Thought this was a cool pic

I will be around here for a while at least anyway. This has been my home page for so many years. Don't know what I would do if I changed it, LoL.

Melissa and I are sad to see you sell. We wish you all the best.

Congrats on the sale I will call you later man.

Wonder if we both flew to Texas if Buddy would let me drive his car also, I kinda doubt it unless I left my boots at home he wouldn't even let me in the car.

Don't forget everyone I still have a lot of JD's left overs for sale will post an updated list by tomorrow night

I don't know what you are going to look for in a Hemi for the cran, but they are all cool looking. A friend has a small hemi in his 32 coupe.

Thanks, but I am going to drop a crate motor in after a year or two. Keeping the outside stock mostly. All the beef will be under the hood and drive train. It runs great with the flathead 6 it has now. I want it to be a sleeper.
