That is just a beautiful color combo. Nice paint work you've done. I can't wait to see this one wrapped up. Later-

Yeah, my family told me that it was snowing in southern Missouri and northern Arkansas yesterday. How crazy is that? Later-

She was probably keeping a close eye on those kids next door to make sure they didn't touch your project. You can tell she's a good helper like that. Nice build too. Later-

OK, here is what I have so far on lowering the front. I started with cutting off and raising the upper spring pockets. Before: After: Then I cut out the center cross member and raised it up. This brought the lower A frame assembly up tight to the frame and gave me about 1/8 inch of lowering which, along with the lowered spindles should tuck the front wheels up nicely into the fender well. Now that I have done this I am debating on whether to convert the front suspension from springs to airbags. I may go to bags. Later-

Been working this morning on lowering the front suspension. It doesn't take much but a little sawing, sanding and gluing. Pictures later today. Now I have to go to a meeting. Later-

That is nice. How can I go about getting one of those bodies? Later-

That's a pretty sweet pair. Nice conversion. How do I go about getting one of your resin COE's? Also, I'd like to see more photos of the cargo. That is a killer looking 55. Later-

Beautiful color combo. Later-

Looks like it will be a great rebuilder. Very interesting hood scoop. I like it. Later-

I'm interested to see what you will do with the 65 Bonneville. Later-

Rodney- I NEED that Mon. Mustang Pace Car!!! Later-

Tom- Do I need to bring a shovel with me? You get started on it and I'll take over when I get there and do the rest......... RIGHT! Later-

Anne- Looking good for a first time with the airbrush. I can't wait to get mine fired up this year. Later-

I'm not sure. Would that be accurate? I'm not certain they will fit. Does anybody know if dual carbs would be accurate under this? I'm sure that for a custom it could probably be made to work. Later-

A simply stunning build. It looks fantastic in pearl white. Later-

That us looking great! I really like that Testers Root Beer. I painted my 68 Firebird in it. Looks even better on this body. I can't wait to see the Blonde Shimmer. I'll have yo look for some. Later-

I got this Caddy air cleaner in the mail today from Crazy Scale Auto Parts. It's beautiful. If this is any indication of what his work is like, I'll be ordering more. Thanks CrazyJim! I think it is official. I'll be going with the 409 from the 62 Bel Air. Does anyone have any ideas for a single carb intake to fit the 409? Later-

This arrived today from Crazy Scale Auto Parts. Thanks Jim. It looks great, and it will look even better atop the 409 in the Boulevard Creeper. Later-

I worked for the Alaska Railroad as a Conductor/brakeman and an Engineer for 11 years (96-2007). My advice is if you are single and plan to stay that way it can be a great job with a lot of variety. If you are married and/or have children I would think SERIOUSLY about another career. Money and work are not everything. It is not worth seperating yourself from your family. My wife and daughter are very independent, which either helped, or was caused by, my choice. The RR I worked for required long hours of either hard work(which I was not afraid of) or monotony. Due to your lack of seniority you will be subject to work all shifts (day, night, holidays, etc), be on call(which means little social life), and usually work the worst jobs. I don't mean to make it sound like a horrible job, because it was a good job with lots of excitement and fun. I just think you should be fully aware of what the costs will be. As far as safety goes, it is of the utmost importance. It sounds cliche, but lives are at stake. You can be as safe as you can be, but your coworker makes one mistake and the whole crew is at fault. And it is not just your crew you have to worry about. It is also everyone else. In the 11 years I worked some of the more scarry incidents we had happen there were from civilians causing the accidents. There are many other good/bad points I could share with you. If you want more info, PM me for my phone #. I'd be happy to talk. Again, it can be a great way of life but it is a HUGE sacrifice. Later-

I'll have to see how this NASCAR front clip is going to work to lower the front suspension. So take lots of clear understandable photos and I will try to find a NASCAR kit to use on a few of my kits, like my 65 Impala. Later-

I think for a seperation line I would just use BMF by itself so that it is nice and tight to the body so that it is as thin as possible. Almost as if it were painted on. I like the idea of a painted roof on this and really like the tail stripe. Later-

A Singer Porsche? I didn't think those things had enough room inside to get a sewing machine in there. Must not have a passenger seat, huh? Seriously, Never heard of them. Learning something new today. BTW- Just send me all of the extra parts. I could use them. Later-

Use it! Later-

And I must say, it looks COOL! However you do the modifying on this ol' girl you've got your work cut out for you. Keep after it. We're all watching. Later-

Man, this is looking great. I can't wait to see some color on it. Later-
