What I like the most about Sharon, Wi. Of course, Model A days was always awesome. Upon arrival, the first thing to do was to stand up straight. Facing north. Then bend forward, grab our butt cheeks and fart in the general direction of Illinois. Didn't really accomplish much, but it sure felt...

You enjoy the moment until it's time to wake up.

This 100% complete chassis came out from under a running driving car. Has a nice 1930 radiator shroud. Has 30 running boards and aprons which I will sell seperate. Even has the factory wiring harness which is usable. Frame not rusty at all. Sitting on a nice set of 1935 spoked 16" wheels and...

If my memory holds true, the indented firewall is late 31. The steel top was introduced in May of 31 and the widebed came along in August. Yet any configuration could be had. When it comes to the black cowl band, headlights and shroud. Which is correct, black or stainless? The world will never know.

I got a text the other day supposedly from the Illinois secretary of states office wanting me to update me drivers license information. Yah, sure I'll get right on that.

Gave my wife a 5" dia. crystal ball as a gift. Damn thing burned a hole in the back of her desk cabinet at work.

Two days to see it all. Me being a train buff I'd suggest checking out the Allegheny steam locomotive. Damn thing is huge and you wouldn't believe that it ran on regular track.

It's almost like if either of those cars had another coat of paint they would not fit.
