Relaxation

Post by Original Smith » Thu Dec 19, 2024 5:48 pm

Here is my form of relaxation. I enjoy laying on my creeper, preferably with a cold beer at my side wiping down the film that gets all over everything. On one car especially it's more meaningful. This car never existed. I built the car from scratch with all original parts, including the nuts and bolts. I'm able to look back at every single part that I put together and think about how this vehicle came to be.

That is one nice pickup Larry. Laying on the creeper with a beer sounds fun.

If I did that, I would probably fall asleep until the aches of old age woke me up. Then glad the car has running boards and fenders so I could pull myself up! :lol: That's a beautiful car.

The only thing more relaxing would to be watching a bunch of elementary children oooing and ahhhing over the car :o

Having completely restored two Model T's, I can relate to your observation. Every area brings back memories of the restoration; some more enjoyable than others! It is one of the benefits of doing a restoration that I hadn't really considered.
