As I understand it Bernie, the "lockdown" here is not as draconian as it is there. Hope it gets better for you and you gain some traction on the Renault.

Looks fantastic Bernie! 👍

Is this it? Thought it might be helpful if there was a picture Frank

Well Bernie, you shall just have to find another 3 projects to use the remaining 150 screws and cup washers! lol Hope your glass of the good stuff with SWMBO was relaxing and enjoyable. Frank

There is some satisfaction getting it back on four wheels! Still trying to get the TBird set up to fire the engine. 😁

Yup....should be a special place in hell for those types of people.

Dangit Bernie! I was hoping it was a bureaucratic snafu.

Hey Bernie, I located an email address in Phoenix and drafted up a request for help which attached the waybill. If you are ok with that, I will cc you on the email and send it off. Frank

Hello Bernie, I hope you are wrong! I did a quick search on Phoenix International and it looks like they are operating under the name C.H. Robinson. They have offices in Australia. Maybe you could give the head office a call and provide the waybill number and they can help you out in confirming whether or not the shipment is there. https://www.chrobinson.com/en-us/contact-us/find-a-branch-office/?region=5 I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! Frank

Good to see you back and posting Frank! Thanks for your help on the VW in the past. I may ask you for help again when I get the engine back in it and start messing with that fuel injection! Best, Frank

Looks like a custom from the 40's or 50's to me with a chopped top and the rear fenders are molded to the body for a seamless look.

I will speak for myself here Bernie and say that I am extremely grateful that you do use the forum and I get to see your cars and learn from you. So, I too am selfishly using the forum. 😉 Keep on keeping on! Frank

Outstanding pics Bernie. You just totally brightened my day! And I really liked the mud flap on the back of the truck/trailer. Keep them coming! Frank

Congrats on the Singer!

I'm with you Bernie. I am not excited by the prospect of getting on a big ol ship with a bunch of other people and going sailing around the ocean. One wave looks pretty much like another to me. lol I would much rather get the TBird done and go explore Route 66 and some other back roads of the US that I haven't seen yet. Gotta get back to work now to make that happen! Frank

Now that is what I am talking about! Our little development here in MD had a local food truck (Taco Friday) come set up and a couple of restaurant had their drink trucks so we had beer and margaritas/sangria for virus medication. 😉 With the proper protective gear and appropriate social distancing, we had the neighborhood out in the fresh air supporting local businesses and getting some face (mask) time.

I hear you Bernie. We are in lockdown mode here also. Can't wait for this to pass.

Is that a TDC measuring tool? That is really clever!! I may have to steal that idea from you sir!!

Sounds like a lot of fun Bernie!

Keep us updated Bernie. I am always interested in learning new things and when something goes wrong, it is always an opportunity. Glad you were able to get the Tasmania trip in with all the virus issues shutting everything down. Frank

Happy Easter to you to Bernie. My wife, May, has been furloughed from her job, so my "Honey Do" list is revised daily. She is getting a preview of what retirement will be like. lol You are correct, I go to the garage to hide out. Off to work.

Definitely looking in on you Bernie and practicing my "social distancing" 😅 Keep us updated! Frank

Thanks Keiser! I think you are correct sir!!

Let's try this!

When you quoted my post, I see the photo. Is it not loading for anyone else?
