Got the limo out for the local cruise night tonight. The weather was great. Kathy provided transportation separately to get my Mom and Dad there. We had a really good time and I think Dad had a lot of fun answering questions about his time with the car. The family history of this car is priceless for me.












There was one little guy that really wanted to get in the car. It’s not like he was gonna hurt my duct tape faux pleather upholstery!





I also stopped by Mom and Dad’s later in the evening. The car looks good in Dad’s driveway!

It’s been a long time waiting for the new heater core followed by more waiting when I had to send it back…long story that I won’t bore everyone with here.

Anyway, I finally got the new core and got the heater put back together. I’m pretty happy with how it turned out. Now, it will spend a lot of time packed away as it will likely be the last thing to be installed after the body work and the interior are done.

The heater looks beautiful! I rebuilt one of those once, a little different but very similar, for my 1940 and while it looked good, it didn't look new as yours does.
