This one to be proud of KH. Interesting to see how you cope with your circumstances too. Thanks for the updates.

Welcome back. Your posts are always fun to read. The car is looking good. Windshield came out nice.

Going together now, took some pics while I was a bit drunk the other night. Definitely not a rat rod any more, but not yet a gold chainer.

My old Yam 500 chopper snuck into this pic.

The cheap flake looks good in sunshine, but I wish I'd put more on.

Neat idea on using the glitter, I always wondered if it was the same stuff. Paint looks great!

A red roadster pick up, a bike and year round warm weather, You are living the good life, KH.

I like the effect as it is. It's like a star field. Only red.

Looks darn good to me....

Interesting that you'd think of that...or your wife thought of that....either way, why not....looks great...

Thanks guys.

When you live where I do you have to be a little innovative at times.

I do wish we lived a little closer to civilisation, so parts were just a phone call away, but that would be too tempting.

Great looking hot rod. I love roadster pickups anyway, and that on is very nice.

Well, Manny did his best but ran out of steam chasing the other guy. [cl

Last weekend I got together with some other buddies, first time we've ever all been in town together, and we held the biggest hot rod cruise ever in the history of the Philippines. Real hot rods, built by us.

Out with my bodyguard one night.

Good job bud. Now what is happening with the Healy?

Hit a bit of a stumbling block with tyhat, as our registration guy tells me I can't do the paperwork as I planned, using the 're-bodied Jeepney' plan I had. I'm thinking of turning it into a race car, drop a V8 in, take it to the drags occasionally, maybe drive it on the streets occasionally too.....

I bought a bunch of Wilwood brake parts, a Speedway steering column and some other useful stuff, all just sitting in a box inside the car at the moment. I'm thinking of a primer grey gasser style, but I put the independent front end on it so that might not work so well.
