Hi Gents & Ladies too of course

Just joined the Forum Today hope this is the right place to say hi:o

Live in BC Canada and have a 29 Model A, 46 Mercury & 55 Chev
Been a member of the Canadian Rodder Forums for a couple of years so thought I'd branch out to here.
I'm in the UK at the moment working for a private Naval firm involved with installing fibre optic cables on the seabed, been doing this for nearly 23 years. Not home for another 7 weeks so plenty of time to make plans for turning wrenches when I get back home. I spend approx 8 weeks away and 8 weeks at home on that rotation
The Chev has pretty much been my daily driver when I home anytime between May & October since I bought it in 97.
I've had the A 2 1/2 years and is almost done and the Merc 9 months
The Merc is very much apart, stripped, 8" rear going in with TCI leaf spring kit, reupholstered, rewiring, engine & Trans swap etc etc. The Merc is a deliberate budget build with concession to safety.
I was hoping to have it as a driver for this summer but apparently the wife and kids want to see me once in a while, not just my feet or butt sticking out of various parts of the car:D.
I'll add a couple of pictures when I can but given my work schedule that may be tomorrow or in 5 weeks:eek:
C ya

Welcome aboard! Nice cars (I'm jealous)! I have a '46 Tudor whixh is getting a new engine when the weather breaks- warmed over 8BA. Looking forward to your posts.
 
Hub caps were for a jioke when I cleaned it up after removing the oxidisation from the paint. The first picture is at my buddies place in Redeer Alberta and he put a bunch of pictures in with him and his mates holding chain saws and axes to the roof pillars ready to give it a roof chop, my minimal revenge was minivan hubcaps. plays with peoples urgh factor every time the picture gets posted. Ugly gets ya noticed?
