    One is off to Jolly Old England and the other is from the dark side. The 30 Model A will end up in the owners mountain home in France so it has the steering on the left side. The 31 tudor we did for him several years ago has it on the right. The 52 has a bunch of subtle mods, like all panel seams filled, but keeps the original looks. Nice running and driving truck.

    Nice!!! Outstanding workmanship again!
    These must be old photos however. You can tell because the sun is out and there is no standing water anywhere.

    Are you expecting the springs on the A roadster to settle a bit Evan? Looks like it has It's high water pants on.

    Sharp eyes, Bill
    Was on it's way to have engine and trans installed. Our builder insists on installing and running any engine he builds unless it's a race engine that's been run on the dyno. Comes back to have head lights, cowl lights, tail lights and other parts installed but mainly to give body final shimming after all the weight is in place. Model A frames are very flexible.

    HA!!! And no eyes to see in the dark either!

    I just figured that was the new Texas look, what with all the rain and all.
    BTW, all your dadgum moisture keeps finding its way all the way up here! Why, I had to sit and watch some last season KC Chiefs football games today because of all the rain.

    Going Away

    In the 1970's I used to direct import old vehicles from all over Europe and Jolley Olde Englande too , now they're going away :( .

    I like that 'A' Bone plenty .

    I had four over the years , good daily drivers and nice for relaxed long distance touring too .

    Even , THANK YOU for keeping the water there in Texas ~ I know we're suffering a terrible drought but I hate the rain so much.....
