It has been a long journey with number 597. I originally started it because I could no longer work due to chronic pain. After two years of restoring this car, I found a new Doctor Who actually helped me.. I had the Boston scientific nerve stimulator removed from my spine and could actually get a MRI. I had two crushed disc in my neck, I suffered with more pain than most people could truly understand. After almost 5 years and many screws in my spine I am almost done with the car. Now in much less pain I am pushing to have number 597 ready for Carlisle, then the East Coast get together. I had the engine installed and ran it, but need to adjust the clutch ball pivot washers. I also have valve cover gasket leaks, Front main seal.
