At the start of spring I bought a big pile of tin. Remains of a 24 roadster with tin patches screwed to the bottom of the body. Fenders that had been on a stone pile with more stones thrown on them.

Sure looks different than the last time I seen it Jim. If you were not busy , you would be buying another T. Good to hear from you.
