    This is a project my friend George is working on. It's a 1947 Ford wagon that's been shortened about 3 feet. He is very talented and I never knew. Just goes to show you.

    Why does this forum have so many critics? Can't you just let on to the mistake and just enjoy the cars without all the smarmy comebacks? Who cares what year it it? I thought you all would enjoy my friend's work but always someone wants to make a point about how much they know and how they can always point out the mistakes of others. Geesh! Let it go man. I hit the wrong key on the keyboard. And by the way, It is very nice work and I am proud to know my friend George. He does fine work and I thought y'all might like to see it.
    Dave.

    Have a buddy who recently chopped his 50 Merc top about 4", anyone who can do sheet metal work without making a mess always impresses me. Taking out 3ft is just amazing. I'm with you guys and would love to see more of this one.

    Thanks for the back-up Krash, no offense or so-called criticism was intended at all.
    I have to remember there are people like that, my mistake.

    People like that, what?? I love the people on this forum but you,..? I'm not so sure? Even on the internet, you're kinda sporting a "tude." Sorry dude but I can't love everybody and so far, I don't think you gonna make the list. I don't see anyone crying about it so no offense, but I have a tough time with the "People like that" stuff.
    Much love,
    Dave.
    P.S. The car is in a real tight garage and my camera phone is crappy enough, as you can tell by the photos, without cutting the photo into 1/4's. When he moves the car, I'll show you all the nice work George does. He really is good and as far as I am concerned, he is Lincoln City's best kept secret.
