The brown spot on the hood is Gun bluing (test spot). Lots of work left to do.

Got any more pics of your speedster, Wick? I love it!

To cool, wish my kids would show some interest, but not even my Son has a desire to drive my A or my '57 Chevy (where did I go wrong?)
Hoping the grand kids will get the bug (been working on them since they could walk)

Kids are the best. Every once in a while at a big regional car show I will pick a kid up and put him in the front seat. Take his hand and push the horn button. I bet 1/2 the time the kid will want an antique / collector car later in life. I sure hope so! LOL

My Grandson's are just getting to where they can reach the pedals, next year they will be driving the A for sure, going to wait awhile before I let them behind the wheel of our '57 Chevy (to much power for kids)
Ain't being a Dad/Grandpa fun...

My father told me that same thing when I wanted to buy a 67 396 hp Chevelle in 1970 . TO MUCH POWER .
