tailgate, too!

I think I got it now, forgot one step!!!

This is my old tailgate on the wall. It reminds me how rusty my truck was. The local joke was the bumperstickers held the tailgate together. The original hood script and hood crest are below it.

Garage Art

Besides being an Architect, My Dad was a great artist as well as a Hot Rodder. He died 20 years ago but my Mom still lives in the house. He Hand Painted this Small Block Ford Cut-Away on some Garage Cabinets from a picture in a book. I don't have the photos with me at the moment, but on one wall is a complete lifesize to-scale painting of his '32 3 Window and on the other wall is a Full-Race Flathead at about 3X. On the 3 Window, you'd swear you could put your hand inside the Hood Louvers. The photo is old and doesn't do it justice. I Plan to carefully remove everything when it's time and bring it to San Diego. For now however, it's a kleepsake my Mom treasures from my Dad.
