Working on the '29 today

Had to fix up my brakes a bit today as my front rotors were glazed a bit. I mostly just went up and down in the car like it was a carnival ride while my friend at the hotrod shop did the dirty work. But we had coffee and talked about the weather and planned a bit of fun for the coming summer. Was a nice way to pass the day.

A few pics for you all who drive '29 chevys

Deglazing:

All of us SHOULD drive '29's!

Was your car built in Canada or the US?

Not sure where it was built in 1929, but it spent it's life in Canada, and got turned into a hot rod in PEI Canada and it'll be 100 years old in 6 yrs I guess.

Wow! Look at that! Chevrolets had disc brakes in 1929!
