    Probably one of the most productive visit to the MVD I've had on a long time. Title for this and new old plate for the 34 Coupe.

    1934 Ford 5 window Coupe Hot Rod

    I didn't know when to put this thread so I put it here with the 34 Coupe because it will go on it. I've had this plate for a while just never did anything with it. New Mexico allow year of manufacture plates on cars if they meet certain requirements. Original condition, correct colors and...

    Went to the MVD for a couple things and checked on the status of the title. Apparently the last gal dropped the ball on this one or the work was done and no one notified me. This lady looked up something on the computer then found the paper work in a file. Typed in some more stuff asked for...

    I was using an adapter to convert the 2 bbl to 4 bbl carb base. I'm using a Cadillac top and it's heavy and it already cracked the plastic adapter. The Shaker Scoop as my brother in law calls it. So I'm using the stock base now. It's kind of low but it clears everything. Might check the pull...

    Well one trip down. At least I got a vin inspection done. They couldn't find the title in the system for some reason. So they sent all the info to Santa Fe and I should hear back from them. When I have no idea.

    Swap meet finds this morning. Spare Buick drum, a Vega cross steer box in case I change steering, and the illusive 15x6 Chevy wheel. Now I can get rid of the adapters on the rear differential.

    Crap! First real drive didn't go to well at least nothing blew up. Throttle cable to carb ball linkage keeps popping off and pedal is binding up with the carpet. Things to fix!

    Drill Doctor to the rescue.

    Easy to use and sharpened well. Split points take some practice to get right. But once I got started it took less than a minute per bit to sharpen, splits took a little longer.

    Drill Doctor to the rescue.

    Got tired of dull drill bits and can't afford new ones! So I found a used Drill Doctor drill sharpener on line. Sharpens standard point 118°, split point 135° and masonry bits. 3/32"-3/4" bits. Works good so far. I already have someone that's want to borrow it! 👍

    Tried to do some engine turning on the sill plates. Gives it a little sparkle.
