If we can not find clips at Carlisle we are planning to strip Faulkner's passenger side. Dan never looks on that side! Hee Hee! :o

But that would be the last resort of course!! :evil:

Hmmm.. Not flattering but what the heck! Had to redrill a hole on the front of the fender while Matthew screwed around with his camera and painting his valve covers....

Will he ever help me??? :wink:

Time to wake him up to get moving! (actually been a lot of help to me, but don't tell him that!)

John - Is that what I can expect when Matthew get to Florida? Being made fun of and ridiculed. But looking at your picture, since it's already published, I don't think you and I should ever share a porch swing. As a way to get more production from Matthew if your garage is air conditioned, just throw a mattress on the floor and chain him to the Belvie.

Probably no joint sharing of the swing is in order for us Dick! :lol: 24/7? is that mins or Hours on the 24 part? I have had to work this week so not much has been done during the day.

Now I have to go to Chicago next week from Sunday to Thursday so that will cramp the work effort a bit. But Matthew has made me finish a bunch of task's during his stay here.

Well, took me all day, (I am old and slow!) but got the headlights re-wired (again!) and got the grill and Headlight surrounds on. Bumber still needs to be sent out for re-work and re-chroming and the lower valance still needs some tweaking here and there...But it is on and looks like a 59 Plymouth!!!

I have plans to take it down to my Mopar Clubs car show on 8-13 and put it in the "under restoration class" (or "he's way to slow to finish it" class! )

It's a start! I will trailer it down but it will be there! Still need to put the brake lights on (they need re-chroming too!) and the rear bumber to make it look somwhat complete. :roll:

Looking good John - WHAT? A trailer queen, who'd a thunk it. Shame on you. BUT, I bet you win a trophy, at least you do in my book. If you need a Generator or Starter let me know.

I might get her started to put it on the trailer but no interior in it. Still need the drive shaft in too, parking brake not adjusted yet either. Insurance not activated yet but that is easy of course.

Just a short term Trailer Queen. :P
