new to me & old metal.

I am on a road trip to get a hood, 2 fenders, a driver door and vent windows from 4-5-6-trucks in Kansas city. I was about 20 miles from my family's residence in Arkansas when I was told to pull over and stop as there was golf ball size hell and about 10 tornados in the area. We pulled over and sat under a big over pass. Wow saved the day. No my hood!

Re: new to me & old metal.

1200 miles so far. I also picked up a custom built 355 v8, custom built turbo 400, and a s-10 rear end to put in my 1935 Chevy 2 dr street rod I am building now.

Re: new to me & old metal.

I can't wait for this crap to be over... more severe storms today.

Glad you were able to save the hood.

Sorry to hear about your weather issues. I hope you made it home with your goodies in one piece. It was a pleasure visiting with you and your father. Thanks for making the trip and your business. Good luck with your projects and keep us posted of your progress with some pictures.

Re: new to me & old metal.

David, it was good to visit with you again and thanks for the tailgate. It has definitely got me started thinking about my old 64 again now haha. Looking forward to seeing your progress on the air ride also.

Hope you made it home safely. Looked like an awesome day to be out driving.
