Several months back i started to build a replilca of wally parks 1929 ford roadster. From that point foreward it has been a labour of love. I have had many problems, and tried many new things. I only work on this one when i am feeling really into it. Every time i think i am getting close to completion something happens. I have scratch built a few things on this and done things that i never would have thought i would be capable of a year ago. Right now the project is near being wrapped up. The interior is the main piece that needs to be completed. I had to mold in pleated pieces into the stock seats. Sorry for not dusting it off before the picture. Its been on hiatus for the past while.

I was thinking about sending pictures of the finished product to the museum. I dont want to send it in the mail because it would get wrecked. thats why they have BuBbLe wrap ;D but i think if you stick a fragile sticker on it, pack it up all nice like with no way it could get damaged, it might have a chance

When you put fragile stickers on stuff the post office guys kick it around on purpose. My uncle works with delivery and he says putting stuff like that on it is just asking for it to get kicked, crushed ect.
