Default Re: Another new (old) guy 1929 Roadster PU

I know the feeling Ted, I bought a sedan in 1978 and like you started dismantling it with the help of my daughters (I still hear about that from them to this day). But like you building a house, getting children through college etc it didn't get done. But one day on a Model A drive my wife asks why we don't have roll up windows? I had been driving the phaeton all my life and didn't feel the need I guess. But it was close to the Continental divide, about 8000 feet and snowing so I could see her point came home in 2001 and went to work taking the sedan apart for total restoration. It is a great feeling when you fire it up and take your first drive. I look forward to meeting you on the Model A highway some time.
