Chester — Thu, 18 Oct 2012 13:44:01 -0000

I'm still here in Dallas. Only recently a friend of mine down there was kidnapped and held for $400,000 ransom. The soldiers (our benifactors) found them and rescued the hostage, killing the 3 cartel members that were holding him. Perhaps in a gunfight, or perhaps something else. In my opinion terrorists like this should be executed on the spot, not sent to a prison for a reunion with their friends and wait for a dishonest guard to allow them to escape. My wife says I got a big mouth and will get myself in a lot of trouble someday. Guess that's so. Whats your opinion?

Thanks Dave, you're 100% right. In 1965 after serving 3 years in the Vietnam war I applied for citizenship in Australia, only to find out in the paperwork that upon arrival I was subject to draft in the Australian army. That stopped me otherwise I might be among my friends in Adelaide, Australia and God only knows what I would have wrote about!.......Chester

Thanks everyone for your positive thoughts for Chester in this situation. I wanted to let you know that he has returned safely. Here's what he had to say:

"Well we made it back in one piece. It is much more peacful down
there with the new police force in charge. We're going to stay in
(the U.S.) to help with the grandkids for a while longer. There is a group
of robbers there targeting unoccupied houses. If we get hit again
after all my work on the house we'll have to return and stay there. I
welded diamond plate over the windows and doors and installed stronger
double locks. I also welded all the doors shut except the front
door.Perhaps they'll pick an easier target next time."

Dear Chester I know that occurred you I´m a victim to this war and in your momment I decide leave all my garage with tools and everything with the thought that only are material things but the security is more important that this material things.
Now I'm in another city no work no money but alive that is important friend.
You can go to the U.S.A that is a country more safe while I not can so I think that you should leave all and going to U.S.A.
Every person try in your brain the capacity to beguin one and another time with God help
So my friend I hope that your desition be the correct.
Mike.

Chester, there's nothing you own that's worth your life. Please get out of there and be safe. After the first I'll be buying the pickup book (I already have the "T" book).

You're someone this lowbuck bum looks up to,
Rich

Where can you find the fiberglass 1915 to 1922 t-bodies? Seems like what is available is the 1923 to 1925 and that is not the look I want. Thanks!

Went to a car show at an ice cream shop in mt airy md yesterday and saw one of your stretched buckets. Wow . Whoever built this car did a great job. I wished I had gotten a chance to talk with the owner to ask about its cost to build. It had a beautiful top, full hood and a deuce grill shell. One thing though, I wish the car was maybe a foot longer. This has got to be the best bucket out there. Nice job.

I got lucky and found one of the original bodies he made. I think the body will look good without making it a clone. The body has good curves that make whatever u put it on look good. The one I have has been on an altered dragster and a semi clone.

Brandy: I don't know of anyone that makes an interior kit for a 27 roadster. The panels and seat are not hard to make and you can do a pretty decent interior at a fraction of the cost if you take your time and think it through. Sid Chavers sells some really great instructional videos on how to build an interior. I purchased his tapes years ago ( when they were in VHS form) and watched them many times and then bought a cheap upholstery machine and practiced a lot. I am no where near his quality of work, but what I do looks decent and can be done very inexpensively. Most of the interiors I do are basic 2 inch tuck and rolls with a smooth roll across the top - typical old school stile, and l can do a tbucket or roadster for under $150.00 and that is for the foam and naughahyde. Don't be afraid to try it. It is really fun and the learning curve is fascinating. Bob @ streetrod 101
