Default Some assembly required

Hi John

When you look at the before pictures, of the some assembly required, starting point for your project it puts even more light on the nature of your accomplishment.

Cheers Phil

You've come a long way since I saw it in your shop early this year. Having never seen the original condition, I am even more impressed with the progress. Makes me wonder if some of those range targets we popped at years ago have been recovered and restored. I'm sure its pretty satisfying to get even this far. Makes me feel like I need to do a lot more on my stuff as the time just slides away and the lineup gets longer... You can never have too many projects!

Wow John! That's a "teaser". Now we all need to see more footage.
The Stuart is running like a champ. I thought that Suburban was going to get it.

Hi Wayne, yeah and that was only 2nd gear! I will leave it to the new owner to crush the first car, and I'm not sure how I would explain to ICBC how I managed to run over my own truck...with a tank
