Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

Saturday night picture time.

The Bungalow is coming together, sorry no truck pictures. What is there to take a picture of when you are just trying to figure out why the wipers won't work?

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

Very happy, but bummed too. I am finally ready to finish the roof, and the roofers could squeeze me in on Saturday - Hooray!!

Guess which Saturday - Super Chevy. Drat.

Here's a close up of the front porch beams and through tenons.

OK I have committed to the Hot Rod Power Tour. I have booked my hotels from St Louis, MO through Arlington Texas. If anybody wants to see me, you know where I'll be.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN ** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

Back from the Super Chevy Show, Frankie had quite the mob scene most of the day. There was no "under construction" class, so no trophy's today. Here is the eventual modified class winner. 67 Anthony here on the board.

Oh yeah, it was a lot of fun to see them so astounded and then tell them it was all riding on a 2002 chassis, engine, etc. Then they really flipped out. Several guys (random strangers) just walked up and shook my hand and said congrats - pretty funny.

No grandpa comments yet. I need to have the full lie worked out and start in telling people it was a rare prototype. Just for fun.
