Thanks, Kai.

This build has taken much longer & cost more than I ever dreamed it would. The car had been off the road for 20 years & my wife would ask sweetly each year if we might be able to take it out for rides that summer. Unfortunately she passed away before I took time to get it back on the road. When the pandemic hit I decided to do a frame off. I’m almost finished now. I couldn’t just leave the unrestored, no matter what the cost.

Peace, Pat

I can understand why you need to finish the project Pat. I hope the last little bit of restoration goes smoothly so you can finally get to the next stage - Enjoying all the rides to come!
