November 12, 2011 -- Fun Pictures

Jenn and I got married today and Jack and his wife Norma were, of course guests of honor at our wedding.  As a wedding present Jack and Norma gave use these amazing original photos of Jack's uncle Harlan and the old car circa 1940.


It was interesting to see the old car with the original pinstriping on the side and also around the rims just outside of the hubcaps.  These photos were back on the farm in Indiana.  The only reason the car looks as good as it does today was because anytime they weren't driving it, it lived in the barn.  This kept it, for the most part, rust free!


I love this shot of the old car out and about, seeing the sights.  I only wish I knew where this photo was taken so we could some day bring it back and take a new picture right where it was 70 some years ago.


This was the other half of the wedding present and it will come in handy for the reassembly process.  This is a Motor's Auto Repair manual, it is the only way to see how this baby goes back together




Thank you Jack and Norma,
None of this would be possible with out your trust, support and vision of where this car will end up in the (near) future!
