Re: The Phoenix Rises
Can you put up a couple shots of the winch and boom? I have a soft spot for old wreckers too and am curious if it has a sidewinder type winch. It is going to be nice. Thanks

Re: The Phoenix Rises
WOW!!! was it in the garage when it caught on fire? I see it was out on thepad buning away. I would be freaking out trying to get it out so it didnt burn the garage down. I do agree with your phiolosiphy that its only tin and just move on.
I assume Grundy took care of you on the other---i hope you had enough on it. I see too many people go cheap on thier toys insurance and get not anything close to what its worth. The new project is looking good. I like it!

Re: The Phoenix Rises
Dude, I am sorry to see the your 64 go out like that. I really like the way it sat and the checkerboard paint on the roof was a brilliant idea ! Good luck on the new build !!

Re: The Phoenix Rises
What ever happened with this build? Is it still in the works? It looked pretty awesome after such a horrible fire beginning the whole build.

Re: The Phoenix Rises
.Ran into a bit of hardship last 18 months.....my wife passed away and house foreclosed and had no place to work on the 55 so I parted it out. No worries though , **** happens and life goes on. Finishing up this 46 for my dad who is 77 and then I'm off to South Africa to build rides for a friend there, nothing keeping me here and I'm only 60 so on to some new adventures.
the 46 has MII front end with a 350/350 c0mbo, a/c p/s p/b...should have it on the road in a few weeks if the weather holds, will post pix when done
