Title: 56 Ragtop 51 years older than me!
Post by: Lunatik on June 14, 2009, 12:52:45 pm
Hi everybody, My name's Hugo, I'm 2 years old and I'm living in FRANCE.

My dad wants to keep me in the right way, so he just bought me an 56 ragtop.

Unfortunatly, she's not running yet but daddy is working hard on it! She will not be ready for the EBI III but it's not a real problem coz I haven't any driving licence! ;D

I'll add more picts soon, thanks for the forum!

The exhaust is now sold (looking 4 a T bird), will run with an 1600, have some work to do on her: brakes, engine, electricity and others minors stuff...

Could go with her everdy day coz it will be my dad's daily driver.

Haha... cool post Hugo, you'd get on well with my son Alex, pictured here with his first engine build, a 2276/IDA's...

You have plenty of time to get the car right (with a bit of help from your dad!).

We all need kids , they have long tight fingers, very good for catching small pieces ans washing small places on the car!  ;D

Small video done by my friend superkuzak first time I put the engine in!

Hope you'll enjoy it, can't wait to drive her again!
