Long weekend working on the hot rod. Sounds perfect to me.
Switched from original 500 Cad, to the earlier style (and much prettier) 390 Cadillac

This will be a good one, look at the 1956 Chevy he has in the other stall.

Ford truck

Mike bought the truck project we started for Phil in NJ
Almost done now

Loveland

Spent the day up in Loveland (Saturday)
No car stuff , but some good beers
Verboten, Crow Hop, Pourhouse, 

chopped and channeled / Sat on Sat post

If your are thinking about building a hot rod for the first time.
Go to a swap meet, or even eBay and start building a collection of old magazines.
So much cool stuff has been built before us, that is the traditional part of this.
And it's not such a narrow focus as others would have you believe.
I had a guy tell me that my double z'd frame can't build a traditional hot rod.
I say he's wrong. Check out this Model A coupe..

 ( I have a better answer now for the steering box)

Thursday ? here's Thursday post on Friday.

You need one of these.
1940 Ford steering wheel.
I got em in original specification

Frames Ahoy !

Yesterday turned into a mess. But today I got Nick's frame off to IA
he's building a channeled 1929 Tudor.
Should be a very cool hot rod.
Thanks for being patient !

Canada ?

No I ain't moving north.
Kevin is building his coupe in Canada. He already lives there.
Doing a nice job, and some cool details I won't show now (dash).

Dodge truck

If you're going to become true dodgeballers, then you've got to learn the five d's of dodgeball: dodge, duck, dip, dive and dodge!

buddy of a pal has a few 1950's dodge trucks.
Low budget build, I figure a IFS front and parallel spring rear kit.
less then $3,000.00 you can get it sitting right. ( I do sell all the parts needed )
If'n it were me, I'd do swap a LS motor and trans from a newer Chevy truck, and do burnouts.

Something like this here;
