tonneau covers done

Took the RPU back to Rapids Upholstery for the tonneau covers. They came out great. Should keep the luggage safe and dry. The cockpit covers zips down the middle, so when I am alone half can stay snapped on. It snaps to a tube frame I made and attaches to the door with heavy magnets. Al did another great job sewing them up out of Haartz cloth.

another fun weekend

Took the new RPU to the GSTA show in St Paul this past weekend.It is always a great show. This year was the 55th. I had the 5w at the 50th. This year again was a nonjudged show. The sixteen clubs in the Association picked there "favorite" car. I was luckily enough to score the "Scavengers Care Club Pick" That was a great honor and a wonderful surprise.
I really enjoyed the whole weekend. Friday I saw so many friends from the cities that i don't get to see and visit with very often. It was a very fun day, actually a very fun weekend.
The trophy was a Hemi valve coves lettered and pinstriped., mounted on a very heavy marble vase.It is a vey cool trophy.

Fun weekend in Fargo

Had a fun weekend in Fargo. The weather was good,no snow or floods, the show was a great time. There was 100 entries in the show, about 25 or so were "Hoodlums" from MN. We took home 5 of the Top Ten awards and best club display. We were pleased receiving one of the top 10 awards with the new 3W coupe. The 29 A Model pickup had a ton a great comments. It was one of the crowd pleasers for sure. The new wheel color, new headlights really looked good.

Interior is done !!

The interior is done. The seat, door panels and rear panel came out great, just how I envisioned them. The seat feels real good. The seat heaters are all wired in for those chilly mornings in the mountains. I have just a couple of little things to do before it goes to the GSTA Rod and Custom Spectacular this weekend. It should be a fun weekend, lots of friends to visit with, cool hot rods to look at and a new hot rod to show off.
