Looks like a nice place for her, she should be really happy there.
Is it closer to your house than the last place?

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
 

Thanks lower. The new homes are on the same property, but about 1/2 mile from where she was. So really not much difference...Jim

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
 

"ON THE ROAD AGAIN". Well, yesterday I took the truck in for safety inspection, got new plates, so I was all set. I drove it today also and put about 30 miles, runs and drives the same, so I'm real happy. After it got dark I aimed my headlights, and took for a short drive. Can see everything great.

I want to say a big THANK YOU to all the members that followed on this sometime, up and down, work to finish it up. Mark and I appreciate all the response that you great guys and gals have shown during this time. I'm sure there will be other improvements further down the road, and it will be posted.

For now, we will continue to follow your builds and adventures...Jim

Oh, I forgot here's a couple pics.

Looks great Jim, especially the through the windshield on the road picture!

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
 

what a complex color that is, sometimes blue and sometimes green. I could swear its either. I love colors like that, like how some red/oranges are.

congrats on driving!
