dead grandfather is my motivation.....nothing else is needed. not a concours de elegance snob fest etc..... it is between me and my grandfather. it doesn't matter to me what it cost vs. what i could sell it for...i am not in it for profit because i will never sell them.....ever.....and i mean it.

everyone has to start somewhere....some are better at it than others....this is my first car to restore and so far i think i am catching on very fast....so i am not afraid of and old beater.....anything is possible through God who strengthens me. all you have to have is the right heart and motivation to see what something could and will look like when you are done, even the worst of cars....and even if it takes 10 years or more. who cares...it is fun....and it makes me feel close to my grandfather who i miss dearly.

He had a 37 138CD on a 120 Chassis.......the last memory i had in it was driving to his funeral in the back seat.....i have never seen the car since.....it is time for new, more pleasant memories for me and Packard....
