I've had the 37 about 4 years now. Drove the first year with the flathead 6 running on 5 cyl's but it was a blast. Pulled it in the garage with the intent of doing a valve job and a little frontend work. Head bolt broke off in the block, priced the frontend stuff and the stock rebuild stuff. One thing led to another, now it has a Fatman frame stub with all the fancy tubular control arms, coilovers, and power rack and pinion. All the mounts and crossmembers are done and the rearend is in. I'm in the process of plumbing the brakes.
Hope to make a maiden voyage early next summer. I have freinds ask "what are you going to do with the interior?", " what color are you going to paint it?" Hell, I just want to drive it again, it's got paint, it's got seats, I just want to take a long drive in the country about sunrise with nobody else on the road!
