Brock,
I
see you have the car pictures posted on your website Beautiful Woodworking (very nice site,
by the way) so I thought i'd provide a few details about it. It is a
1942 Chrysler Town & Country wagon, commonly known as a Barrelback.
These were only made in 1941 & 42, with 42 being a short production
year due to the war. The 41s are rare, but the 42s are even more so, and
only about half a dozen are known to have survived. I have about 11
months into it so far and will be working on it for most of the rest of
this year. I only do the wood work, others take care of the chassis,
sheet metal, paint. upholstery, etc... This project will probably be
about three years total.
I would be glad to keep you updated on the progress if you would like. I have also included a few pictures of some of the
other things I have built, you don't see too many of these around anymore.
If
you are ever in the neighborhood, stop by the shop and have a look
around. It's not much, just me and the mice, but you would be welcome
just the same.
Cheers,
David Martin
