The '41 is certified and on the road at last! There are still a few things remaining to do on the old family truck - we were able to find the elusive front grille in Colorado and hope to have it soon - but the important thing was getting it on the road before the snow flies in Northern Ontario, and taking Mrs. Colquhoun on a little jaunt in it.

A few parts still missing, but it runs!It's nearing the end for this labor of love's first big project. Although, as other vintage car owners will attest to, there will be lots of projects still to come just to keep it running! If you were one of the enthusiasts who saw the restoration in progress, don't be surprised to see the truck parked out front at Axiom next summer, and be sure to stop by for a closer look! And for posterity's sake, one last shot of 'Before' the restoration began, so you can truly appreciate all the work Steve and the crew put into it.
