Nice looking machine Aaron that oozes power, a bit like an oversizes flat top ute.

Thank you folks. It is a lot fun. I have had the chance to drive a time or two now. You can make a U-turn on the street without backing up.

Ok George, here are some more shots of the the 53' Chevy Wagon. The color on the firewall will be the main color and the rim color will be changed to match the firewall. The wood section is from the drip rail down to the main bulge below the windows and will also include the entire rear gate section. The wood will be painted on. Above the wood section will be a light tan.

I love the old wagons. If need be, how big a deal is it to replace a vintage window/windshield?

It's not to difficult George. The windshield is mounted in a gasket that has a channel molded into it for the glass and one for the pinchweld. Both of these being offset from each other. It usually takes about ten minutes as long as the glass is the correct size.

I always get that excited belly buzz when I see these old vehicles chugging round. Nice pics Aaron.

Thank you Vic. I went out yesterday and found a couple ancient buildings to take photos of. One is all but gone.

Cool buildings. I love old buildings for their contrasts and character. Nicely composed and captured.
