SO looking forward to this. Thanks for posting, Frenchy. I'm assuming that you're referring to the Cars & Coffee event (where we've met before?).

Also, did you see my reply to your post on this thread?

Frenchy,

Good for you.  Your Hot Rod Lincoln will turn some heads.  You did a nice job on creating a traditional rod with that V12. Have fun! Too bad you will not be in town for the huge cruise night on Central Avenue in Phoenix, from 1pm to 9pm.  A lot of people would really like seeing a rod like yours.

     Rick yes the NSU is been worked on as we speak. Thanks to DKP and DKK members for your support at the Cars and Coffee in Irvine this past Saturday. I was amazed how many people were taking pictures and beyond them selves about the 32 it is only a car with a funny engine.  Friday night was a great turn out on Main street in Garden Grove all together 115 cars or so I was told by the promoter that showed up. The the best was at the end of the night I received the BEST of Show award. And Saturday after Cars and Coffee I went to another car show in Chino valley and received the first place award in all it was a great weekend spend with friends and a lots of great comments about the car. Now time to move on the the next project.

     Thanks

     DKK Fred was taking pictures of the car at Cars and Coffee in Irvine. There were a lot of pictures taken by magazine photographers who know were these pictures will be posted. This weekend I will be in Tucson for one of the biggest show in Tucson. I will let everyone know of the results.

    Here are some updated pictures that I have sent for the Grand National Roadster show in Pomona in January. I have the car at a friends house to airbrush Pin Up Girls on each front quarter panel.

Frenchy,

I would not be surprised if you won something at the show.  When is it?  I'm thinking of driving over for it. Went last year and loved it.  I have no doubt they will put you in a prime spot.  You've done an incredible job on the roadster.

Very cool '32.  I think its cool that you're into "cars" - venturing outside ACVW's.  One of my desires is to build a '40 Ford truck with a flathead.  I really like the overall look and detail of your '32.  Very nicely done.  I'd love to see and hear the car in person.   Cool
