Howard is doing okay. He just doesn't spend much time on the computer lately.

He's staying hydrated and keeping his leg propped up while he reads and watches tv.

I've been picking his brain about some things as I contemplate taking on his project. I want to stay true to his vision as much as possible.

I thought it would be cool to paint it in the same color scheme as his streamliner. I'll pass on things as we move forward.

I just got an email from Howard saying he was working on his fence trying to keep snakes out, so that sounds to me like he's doing a bit better these days. :D

I'll be heading out to Arizona to see Howard in about a week or so. I'll post some pics.

If you head back through the Phoenix area and need a place to rest, I have a spare house next door. I hope all is well with Howard. I can't believe how resilent that guy is.

Well my project is gone but it is in good hands. Rob, his son and a local riend showed up Tuesday and caught me still sleeping. When I really crash it would take a nuclear explosion to wake me up and I slept thru my alarm They started about 8:30 and were gone around noon. I hate it that I did not get to finish it but my antique body said NO. I will drop by here occasionally to see what is going on and follow the process on his build. Thanks for your friendship and support and good luck to all of you.
Have fun and be safe.
Howard :P

Yeah, don't be a stranger howard. Your body may be giving you sass, but your knowledge is what this Forum needs the most.

Best of luck with the newest projects.

Yes, please do stop by from time to time, Howard. It's terrific that your project is going on to a new home and eventual completion.

Best,

Lonnie
