Mitch,
Your dedicated efforts are producing a beautiful car!
One question-how will you work the "Tommy Gun" into the interior-sling, rifle saddle holster, etc.

Hi Mitch,
Nice body work. but why wouldn't you paint it black with red wheels like the late 31 pickup you worked on for me last June. You liked it and wanted it. Not for sale as you know. In two weeks, we are shoving off to French Lick for the MARC meet. Hopefully it will make it all the way this time.

Mitch, Looks like you've done this afew times

Great job! Want to hear more as you go along. Super nice body/Paint work. Good shop to work in, for me, space is limited. I want to hear about your soda blasting, equipment, experience blasting, any problems cleaning up afterwards. I've built afew chassis, none show quality detail, but improving my skills with everyone I do. Great job!
