Last night I finalized the deal on the sale of the old rat truck. I have mixed emotions about it, but, I have cash in my pocket. It was a great truck and now someone else will get to have fun with it. Looks like the Studebaker will be going to Louisville this year. :D I am still priming and sanding on the COE and I can't see it being ready to drive there.  Its a lot of work but I really want it to have good paint.

Steve, I will post pictures a bit later. Are you staying in the same motel? We are. We will be parked in the same area also.

Don,
      The plans right now are to return to the same hotel. That may change. I am getting my Chevelle ready now. Almost there, took it to the local cruise-in tonight. First time out this year. I have some interior work to do yet and some fine tuning on the clear coat and adding some decorative pieces.

Still working on some electrical issues, but I'll get them down soon. Need to calibrate some gauges etc.

I am building a custom console right now. I need to get the A/C hooked up and running. I have a Vintage Air unit i bought several years ago and still not fully functional yet. I know from experience that A/C can be a lifesaver after a hot day in Louisville!
