The updates on the 29 should be starting up again in a few weeks. Im excited for the mechanic to get back. The body and fenders are 95% stripped to bare metal. Second batch of chrome should be back any day. All the wheels where shipped out for total reubiuld. Brakes done, Tranny done, rear end done, exhaust done, harnes done.

The old boy is on its way back!!!!! It will be 65 years since this car ran. Im psyched.

Whats the oldest restart of a non rebuilt engine that anyone knows of????? Oldest for rebuilt engine too?

Upon disasembly, my engine could not hold compression in two cylinders. The carburator was filled with cycilcone. (everyone scratched their head trying to figure that one out) Rick
