My Dad is in his late 60's and has never owned a highly modified car. I aquired a '38 ford truck and have been building it with the help of others for the last couple months. I hope to have the glass cut and installed this week. It is now in red primer so he can drive it some before he decides...
Do you have pics of the engine? Do you know if it's still stock? Going fast in a hotair on a budget . . . . . you will need to stock pile parts. Good thing you are planning on doing it slowly. How fast do you want to go?

I have a friend listing it for me this week. I purchased 2 of these from gnx7 in San Francisco years ago, only used one and can't justify keeping the 2nd when others are probably in need way more than I am. Hope it can find a new owner who will love it, cuddle it and let it be naughty.
