January 21 to 26 2015 we took the 1953 Kaiser "Karens Kaiser" to the Grand National Roadster Show "The Grand Daddy of Them All"  We stayed at the KOA RV Park next to the Fairplex, unloaded the car from the trailer on Thursday morning and carried the display carpet sticking out of the passenger window. Waited in line an hour before they would let us into the building.  We got in, unloaded the carpet & lay'ed it down, moved the car in place and started the display setup that took 2 hours including the cleaning.  One of the outstanding was this hand formed all aluminum car.  This 1947 Hudson truck won first place and best paint.  Moor beautiful hot rods.  This is one of 13 contenders for most beautiful roadster.  The theme was The Grate Gatsby and lots of people dressed up.  This 1959 Cadillac De Ville is from Italy and was hung up in customs untill just before the show.  Lots of low riders...

 I decided it was time to start a new project car and started watching Craigs List and Facebook marketplace and found a couple of cars with little or no rust and most of the parts with them. The one in Kingman was sold before I could get the money together and ended up going to Victorville California, a couple weeks later, for a 1968 Mustang coupe.   I selected a Mustang because of the parts that are available for them as almost everything is remanufactured now days. We bought car trailer a couple of months ago and put it to good use on this project car.  The car came with a 1989 302 (5.0) engine with GT40 heads and T5 transmission (that are out of the car) and an extra 9" rear end with a disc brake setup, front coil overs, set of headers, front disc brakes (calipers only), new Painless wiring harness (as well as the original), new aluminum radiator and a bunch of extra parts. There is a new padded dash but all the gauges and radio are missing. I'm currently taking the ca...
