I HAVE RESTORED THE 1913 MECHANICALLY, BUT LEFT IT AS IS COSMETICALLY WITH ALL THE FENDER REPAIRS AND RUST. I HAD TO BEAT OUT THE TURTLE DECK TO RESTORE ITS ORIGINAL SHAPE. LOVE DRIVING THAT CAR.

Re: BUSINESS FOR SALE
Henry, I love supporting the hobby and would hate to just close my doors. If I did a lot o dealers and customers would loose the source of a lot of their parts. I doubt that any dealer would be willing to invest the money to replace the parts that we manufacture.

Re: BUSINESS FOR SALE
The fellow in Canada swears he is going to buy our used parts and wants them very much. Especially at 0.15 on the dollar. However, he is having problems with transportation to Canadas and has nor given us a deposit. So as far as I am concerned the parts are still for sale.

Re: BUSINESS FOR SALE
Thomas, I cannot disagree. It takes a lot of dedication to make a business successful. But I think you will agree that a business is quite successful when you start with a small $2,000.00 inventory and grow that to near $1,000,000.00 with out borrowing a single dollar. Thank you for your comments Glen
