  1. Cool stuff, guys...Don't forget the necker knob for the steering wheel!!! They were quite popular back in the day 50's & 60's!!!
  2. I know the government and the environmental folks have to do what they do "to protect our planet" but I have to agree with Bill that the new cracker box vehicles are so uncomfortable to drive or ride in and they have not go much class as far as styling goes. I drive a 2013 Honda Odyssey and I must say that it is the most comfortable ride I've ever owned and it gets decent fuel mileage and actually I've not really found anything I don't like about it. I'm retired now but as a worker, I still preferred the larger vehicles for comfort both commuting and going on long road trips. I'll pay the extra fuel cost for the comfort and I like the style. We all have our likes and dislikes so no one is wrong in their personal opinions about what is right. If I could I'd take a mid sixties Impala or Chevelle and outfit it with the newest technology and have the perfect car having both beautiful styling and modern technology. Just wanted to throw this out there and I have no problem with those who prefer the small vehicles or those who prefer the mid to full size vehicles. I guess I'm just a little too old school these days, lol. Some very interesting thoughts brought out here and maybe I need to be more open minded. Just my 2cents and I love reading what others think!!!????????
  3. Looks like a great time!!! Congratulations on the awards. I hope to make the 5 hour drive up and check it out one day. Hmmm, family in Coon Rapids...might have to plan a long weekend next year and put the whole deal together. Anyway, congrats on well deserved awards with the Dodge and the Chrysler. They're both gorgeous as I'm sure the others you took are as well. ????????
  4. It just keeps getting better, Geoff!!! Once everything settles down, I do hope you'll come back to the Willys first. The license plate frame is really a nice touch. Can't wait until you're back home and building again!!!????????
