Greg,
Great thread, thanks for posting.
Finally seeing a Tri-5 like that, I physically feel better.

Just for you buddy....
It really is a beauty! He spent 10 years building it --- in a two car garage --- and everything was done by him except the upholstery and paint -- and it was painted in his garage....
He is super meticulous.... the fit and finish is spectacular... and get this -- first car he ever did!

Great story...wow!
Never would have thought that's how that amazing '56 was built.

Wow what a beautiful car, the black is so nice, so freaking nice!
Nice garage build Greg and what cool deal for you to give him a hand in freshening it up for him!

Thanks Rick....
I only posted it up because the Skeepers (screen name -- Compost Mints - or something like that) asked me to. Actually - I'm certain most of the guys here don't think I've ever even seen a car let alone take the time to work on 'em.

You're a brave man, Mr. weld. I have a truck with a paint job just like that car. It's won everything ISCA can throw at it, and I'm afraid to even look at it, much less do something like your doing. I've put four miles on my truck, since I built it, in 1996!
That is a beautiful tri-five for sure! Absolutely beautiful!
