I was 1 yr old when my father took apart his 31 PU to paint the frame. 40 years later I finally got him motivated and we are slowly getting it back together. The ole girl is almost a rolling chassis. We alternate working on his PU one weekend then my 31 slant window the next weekend. We are having a blast. Here is a picture of my dad and his chassis.

Well, you can't rush into these things!!

Seriously, good luck. You're making progress, but more importantly spending valuable time with Dad. Enjoy it!

You'll have a smile when she rolls and a bigger one when she drives.

Great! Looks like a lot of fun. Wish my dad was still here to help on mine.

Making memories is the best thing you can do with your Dad, My Dad has been gone for 30 years now. He taught me a lot about cars , and I still miss him, but I always have the memories.

Congrats. It's a great feeling when things start going back together again.
