          • I never thought of it that way buddy I thought it just gave me and excuse not to work on it. I'm hoping to get back at it this winter. I did get the last of the chrome parts back today they look awesome man those guys at Ogden Chrome do great work. I'm also got the car out and looking it over and taken a look at a plan of attack.

              Yes, he does fantastic work!! But I admire you, Greg, for doing all the work yourself. If I could do life over, I would have taken auto mechanics in high school. Would love to be able to work on the Elco myself! Can't hang around Vic's garage cause he doesn't like anyone hanging over his shoulder while he's working!

                            • Been trying to catch up on some rest and get a few things done so I can get started again on the Torino. The track is shut down for the season so that should free up some time as well. I'm also going back to fight with the city again so I can get my garage done

                              • Good luck with your fight with the city, Greg! Deb and I are in the process of downsizing from our 10 acre parcel to a smaller house in the city of Verona. The place we are looking at has a 26'x29' detached garage, but if I connect it to the house, I can add a 30x40 addition to the garage, which will give me enough(is there ever enough?) space. Lived here on this 10 acres for 35 years, imagine how much "stuff" has accumulated!!
