I finished my car
This is my third and I think I'm getting the hang of this restoration thing. I did all the mechanical and paint myself and it turned out pretty good. It is kind of a rare body. Standard Blindbacks with a plain interior and no cowl lights were built the first three months of 1930 to a total of about 5200 cars. Next up is a '31 Roadster Pickup, but my bank account has to recover first.

Re: I finished my car
Very pretty, Greg. When you say "all the mechanicals" did you do the all the engine work too?

Re: I finished my car
Great looking car !!! Sounds like I should be working on my third car instead of my first. Just like they say your first million dollars is the hardest to earn, so I quit working on the first million and have started working on earning the second million because they say it is easier to earn. This first car is a slow go. But you give me the inspiration that it can be done. Looking forward to restoring my third some day. Thanks for the pictures !!!
