If a picture is worth a 1000 words ...then this photo is priceless. This is a photo of John Weaver the original owner taking a photo of his pride and joy. When it comes to this restoration..there is no one better to ask than John ....he was there day 1 when it was delivered new to him. The little details that he recalls is remarkable.

When you think about it...John had this car longer than most everything else in his life. He didn’t say alot on Saturday except when asked to recall a specific detail about the car. You could tell John felt a sense of pride being the original owner and curator of such a piece of history. The look John had at the progress of the restoration was like he was looking at an old friend again.

Well said Matt. I would say John and I are very good friends...I can’t wait to see him in Chicago watching and reacting to people’s first peek at his first love.
