Looks like fun

Nice pictures.
I cannot handle that white stuff.:eek:
Was raised here on South Carolina Coast.
We had high of 60 today and that was too cold.
I am ready for spring.Won`t be very long.We will be back to short sleeves by first of March.[dr
 
Yeah rex, it's all what you grew up acclimated to I guess. I spent 5 years in east Texas and would be dead if I hadn't got out of there. All I wanted to do 8 months out of the year was get home and set in front of the air conditioner.. I love the outdoors, when it's cold you just put on more clothes.45 degrees today and I shed my coat, 45 degrees down south and I had on my undulated coveralls. When I was in Texas I wore the same amount of clothes at 35-40 degrees as I did at zero in Alaska.
 
Very Nice

I'm one of those not getting the no L :p
I'll not forget it though :cool:
A bit slow in my older age :D
Doin donuts in the snow is fun, in a rod, I can see, is way more fun [cl
 
No L
Noel;
Had to look it up for myself
from Wiki

Noel (also spelled Nowell or Noël) (nəʊˈɛl) is an alternative word for Christmas. It first entered the English language in the 14th century. The word comes from Middle English noel, which derives from the Old French word noël and its more common form naël. The English spelling "Noël" is taken directly from modern French, which also derives from the Old French. The ultimate Latin origin is the phrase nātālis (diēs), "(day) of birth".
 
Willowbilly that looks like a lot of fun. Do you have a build thread for your roadster? I would like to see how you made the body. Snow in the south is not much fun because we usually have ice under the snow which makes driving very dangerous. It is kinda fun to listen to the transplant northerners listen to how great they can drive on snow and then have a wreck because of the ice.
 
Yeah, plus no matter how good you could drive up north, you are still on a road full of other people who have little or no experience on slick roads. When I was a trasnplant northerner in east Texas, I stayed home when it was icey.
I don't really have a build thread but I did post several different threads over the years on certain aspects of the build
Here's the run down on the body. The cowl was a 29 Model A fordor that I cut the windshield posts off and reworked the whole top using the crown section from a 77 T-bird hood. Origins of the windshield frame unknown, $1 swap meet piece I cut down and Veed. Doors are about 23-24 T touring back doors and I added some to the tops using pieces of old window garnish moldings. Rear section is 26-27 T touring and I used more of the T-bird hood to build the door jams that tie the cowl and tub together, bed is a cut down late T or early A. Grille shell is about 34 Chevy car with 4" sectioned out.
 
Man, that looks like fun, Willowbilly. Nice to have some prairie near the house.

We got 14" of snow Monday so too deep to go "off roading" here.

For quite a while I wondered if you were going to get that fine machine done. Sure glad you did and are having fun with it.[cl
 
A little photoshop. Hope you don't mind.
