    Sweet! What did it look like originally? Do you have any before pics? Why does he have both a temporary permit and a license plate?

    No, a local guy in our area did the body, a friend in the Sackville area did the motor rebuild.



    It was in rough shape originally, and an off yellow color. I'll see if I can find some pics later.

    Yeah he didn't bother to take off the expired plates, he has some antique auto plates going on soon.



    Unfortunately, the insurance only covers Dad as the only driver. I won't be able to take it out for a rip for a while.
