my second tudor is named Lucy because after we purchased her everything you touched was left LOOSE. just about every bolt was falling out...
Mitch, sorry to read of your late Father's Model A. I'm sure he's very happy at your work on Model A's. At some point the car that was your Father's will find a new home and I hope it is with you...
