Quote from: "Carps"Not that it looked bad before, but do I like the new look much better.

Only one question Uncle Bob, is the passenger seat mounted lower, so you can take regular sized people for a ride?

Peter yes but this one is chopped 4 inches so all of my vertically challenged friends must recline the power recliner passenger seat. Normal sized folks can see just fine with the seat in an upright position.

OK, so you only changed the outside huh?

Last time I rode in it I had to lay the seat horizontal, so all I could see was the roof lining.

Really nice car, kind of a combination of styles that work well. Is that. '46 grille? Does the front clip tilt? I was looking to see how the hood fit ti the fenders, my '46 is terrible, and I see no line from hood to fender.

Man, it certainly has changed since when you used it for ice fishing, you crazy Wisconsin guy. );b(

The chrome you put back on really adds to it.

That is kinda funny, the reason it has a tilt front end is because I couldn't get the fenders and the hood to line up right, this solved the problem.

Yeah they don't line real good stock, so I complicated things and pie cut the hood on mine....really didn't help the fit.

A few pics from leaving my house in a snowstorm and finally set up in the basement of Cobo center.
In my driveway, it's snowing.

Good thing that my wipers work.

Rest stop in Michigan not really too dirty.

All set up in the basement with the So What Speed Shop and Bad Donkey bunch.

So Bob, when you backed the car out of the garage, and took the picture of the car in the snow, why did you not turn around and take a picture of the garage door for me? What were you thinking? Oh, maybe something like, "How and I going to get this car to Detroit in this mess". I bet I will get my door picture someday soon.

I hope you are having fun this weekend. I imagine you are. That show is on our list.

Shelby, Brett and I stopped by and saw Bob today. The color looks just as good in person.
