Just lettered up. The ole 6 is still banging away.
It's amazing the amount of pictures this car has been
getting this past summer.
I have walked up to get in it then just hang back
and not start it. Lol.
When people ask , I tell them it's not true. But the interest
and stories have been great by most.

Crazy, I was just thinking and wondering about you this morning. I was telling Doug he needed to get his camera out for his upcoming trip, and mentioned we needed to get a thread going on our cars at different places, vacations, etc. I've missed your pics!
I had a similar idea for my '57, although a bit more subtle...I've got this big empty spot high on the top of my console next to my dash...I was thinking of getting one of those big bright red covered Nitro switches and double sticking it on there!

Good idea, I just need to remember to take the camera  :003: I think I've only taken less then a handful of pictures when I'm out.

I hardly ever take pics with my cell phone...can't figure out how to get them from the cell into the computer. Not my idea really on the pic thread...it's done frequently on the Hamb.

Don't have one, when I leave the house I'm off the grid  :003: and plan on keeping it that way.

He did a great job on it...and the neat part is, anytime you need more horsepower, you can just go see your signmaker!
