Hey Joe. I was over to your place a couple of years ago, when I was still building the 52 Ford pickup. I'm over here just south of S.A. A friend of mine is looking for a '27-29 pick up for a rat rod. Got anything available?

 

[Gastrick]

Man oh man!! I think I could go in your shop and never leave. Thanks for sharing your shop with the group joetx.

Hello Lakota, I remember talking to you a couple of times on the computer. Alos been to your web page a couple of time. Good hearing from you. Sorry I never made it up your way. Email me with your email address again so we can talk:[email protected] Only one I have in '28-9 is this one. It's titled and has antique plates. All '29 running gear. Kind of a rat some kid would have built back in the day with a $25. model A. Problem is that if you are building a rat out of this you will be paying a lot for stuff you won't be using. Regards, Joe.

That's the way it is, hotrod preacher. The '27 is for sale as are all my other projects. They just have different prices. Price list and individual picture build files are available. Just PM me with your email address. Joe.

Hey Gly500, That '77 LTD has 17,000 original miles on it. Old man passed away in '89 and that put it in a garage and left it. Had to unnail the garage door to get it out. Both the LTD and the A PU are for sale.

Alway welcome. I get a lot of people driving thru that pull in. A lot of "snowbirds" stop by on the way south and then again north. Everyone is welcome. Gives me a chance to sit down for a while. Thanks, Joe.

Need to get rid of some of my stuff!

Well, Just finished with my contract job and am applying for SS retirement. Had been working for Tx DOT doing inspection on this new freeway going through Falfurrias. Getting old...... So, I'm going to try to get rid of some stuff at the shop. I've added a few "new" projects and don't have any room at the shop so I need to "thin down the herd". Thanks, Joe.

Built this VW with VW running gear then decided to go with a Datsun 510 engine with an S-10 rearend. Car could go back to VW pretty easy. Here's a picture of how it looked as a VW and next as it looks now.
