Would absolutely have to be white wall if the wheels are black. Black on black would look awful!

I have preference to the cream wheels as that is the way dad had it.

No that photo was taken in 2016. Bruce DeFord and Earl Petersen recommended Dave Sylvain to do the restoration.
We picked up “Henry” from my mom in Saskatchewan and trailered him out East to Dave’s shop in spring 2016.

I am going to post some progress photos in the members section.

It is a huge thanks to this VCCA chat page that Henry is getting the best of best from all the years of passion and knowledge in the early Chevys from Dave, Bruce and Earl.

The exacting craftsmanship of Dave and same exactness in the wood working skills of Judd Isch is just incredible. The engine progress can be viewed online at J&M Machine who also are top in their field.

Thank you Mike for introducing me to Earl when I first posted here.

It’s been a lot of fun working with these guys. Found online a 1935 CN Chevy Standard parts book so it has been great when looking for parts we can make sure we the correct ones.

You might want to consult with Earl about getting a copy of the OPEN CAR PARTS catalogue he has covering 1929--1935.

Its interesting reading and worth owning.

Did we produce one, doubt it. I took the copy Earl made for me and took it to a specialist to have increased in print size so I could easily read it. Even increased its at 85-90% clarity.

Thank you Mike for putting me in touch in Earl. He has been a wealth of information as he has a US 1935 that he restored.

Check out the online progress on members forums project and you can read up on Dave Sylvain's articles in the G&D some mention is made to "Henry", as he is restoring. He details out his restoration process which is amazing! Thank you Dave!

Bruce De Ford put me in touch with Dave and has been judging us step by step as we go as to what is correct and what is not! Thank you Bruce!

Named after my father who passed away in 2017 and who always wanted to restore this car.

Can hardly wait to see the final results!
