I have no troubles, but I usually use the windows snipping tool and then paste it here so I can adjust the size to something smaller than very huge! ;)

Just lovely. Like those wide whites on the wire wheels. You can imagine the influence that top and similar from that era may have had on later Hotrod builders .

Interesting, it was a front wheel drive, in line 8, about $3500 in 1929, now over $200,000. Apparently it was slow, could only do about 80MPH.

Oh unfortunately ... only 2 pedals ... this car is actually a work in progress ..... he pulled it out for the first time this year and is sending out for mechanical work

The body is very straight .... as it was recently done .... needs a bit of engine work and some TLC on interior but when its done I'll snap some better pics in the sun

Hope your enjoying the new ride !

Ya . A shame. They have those high wide shifters, ugly . He should punch another hole in the firewall, lol . Left High Level Alberta at 9am yesterday and pulled in the driveway at 4:20 on the nose . Maybe a sign…. 735 km . Looked at the last 80 km fuel numbers and it was 7.6 average and 7.1 best . That was probably 110 kph average. Very happy and pleasantly surprised for sure. Just watching the end of the Italian Grand Prix and then wash the car and go for a cruise. All previous projects on hold for now, lol .
