Dale Adams Ent New Member Registered: 07/29/08 Posts: 8 Loc: Kent, Ohio	We will be promoting the auction at the Glenmoor Gathering in Canton, Ohio next weekend (Sept 13th and 14th). With posters and one of the pedal cars. Edit: Good comments on the pedal car event this weekend at Glenmoor. Good show too - a bit soggy on Saturday for the tour, but the sun came out on Sunday. Many gorgeous cars. Edited by Dale Adams Ent (09/15/08 03:37 PM) _________________________ www.daleadamsenterprises.com

West Peterson Long Time Member Registered: 04/28/04 Posts: 3096 Loc: Dayton	I'm really slow out of the starting blocks, but it's nearing completion. These photos illustrate how much nicer the original car looks if it's been lowered. The car is now painted black, with a deep burgundy hood. Also, the basket weaving has been applied as per my original design. Dashboard has been installed and the steering wheel has been lowered. Final sanding and some clear paint this week, then onto the leather interior. Attachments (316 downloads) (316 downloads) _________________________ MT2MB

Argyll Member Registered: 10/06/07 Posts: 101 Loc: Nr Glasgow, Scotland.	I can't get over the chassis behind the little Duesenberg SSJ, let alone the quality of the work being displayed here. Thank heavens there are still folks out there building up to a quality and not down to a price. _________________________ 1957 Chevrolet 210 4-Door Sedan.
