Now for the rest of the story of Hay Wagon to Speedster Project ​viewtopic.php?f=2&t=13134

It began as a stroll through my then girlfriends family farm some two years ago. And on this farm was unmistakably a 26-27 Model T chassis that had been turned into a Hay wagon. My girlfriend and her family had moved a lot of hay with that wagon. But it had been sitting in the field for years un-used. I decided to turn it back into a model T. Along the way I decided to make that girlfriend into my wife. That Hay Wagon finally became a Model T one day before the wedding. Same spot about 480 days later: The wedding was majestic. 1920's theme of course. Everyone had a great time. Thanks to everyone who helped: my wife, John Tannehill, Ross Lilleker, Steve Lang, Chaffin's, Terry Woods, Dave Huson, Model T Haven, my 3 sons, Steve Jelf, and many more on this forum. Could not have done it without you.

Here is my wife's 90 year old Father with his former hay wagon:

Congratulations!
And best wishes.

Speedster looks nice!

Now the rest of the story surfaces! Sentimental Dad's rusty stuff!

Congrats!

Good job Ignacio !! I admire your perseverance and congratulations on the wedding....

What a truly great story. Congratulations on the wedding, hoping you and your bride travel many happy miles. Great job on the car, it’s awesome! And it’s been fun following your build. Best of luck going forward.

Thanks again to all. Here is most of the wedding party. The reception was at Southfork Ranch where Dallas was filmed. We took it to church for the first time this Sunday, it was a great ride!

Ignacio and family, Congratulations on your wedding and finishing your Speedster project on time. Best wishes !

Fantastic Job! Love how it came out, and such a happy couple!

Congrats, great ending (and beginning) to the story.

Very nice job, both on the car and the wife. Hope the former Ms. Valdez is jealous. Don't forget, I still OWN part of that car.

Thanks Terry, the wheels are great all you brother!

Towards the end it was 12 hour days getting it ready. Nothing like a has to be done by deadline to get something completed
