Hi Errol,
I see you photographed my car:-

         DSC07945.jpg
         DSCo7946.jpg

You took very nice pictures of it, thank you. The car has been restored about 12 years. It was purchased completely assembled but not in very good shape. While I was disassembling it, the whole left side fell to the garage floor. When I finally got down to the frame, I took it to a professional car restorer who took the rusted parts of the frame off and welded in new metal. Then sandblasted the frame and painted it. When I got it home I coated the inside of the frame with a preservative through the holes where the rear bumper is fastened. Then the reassembly started, it took about two years to get it reassembled from a mechanical point of view. Then back to the restorer for the body reassembly and paint and chrome and all the other little details that make up a complete frame off restoration. It now drives like a new car and can keep up with traffic on the interstates.  It's really a joy to go places in it.
Sincerely,
Bob

Hi Errol,

I'm Bud Krueger from Plymouth, MA.  Your images #DSC8000 thru DSC8004 are of my friend, Paul Hinchcliffe, of Lakeville, MA and I.  Your boys are sitting in/on my 1952 TD, Lazarus.  There's a bit about Lazarus on my website.  Check out http://www.ttalk.info/Tech/Lazarus.html, or http://www.ttalk.info/Tech/OldFriend.html.
 
It was a pleasure meeting you and the boys.
 
Bud Krueger

 

Many thanks to the folks who allowed the boys to sit in or on their cars!  The boys really thought it a treat!
