well there is the complete history of Miss Taboo. its currently onto its next chapter of life that will hopefully get her back on the map. our main goals with this car is to get it back into rod and custom, get inducted into the portland roadster show hall of fame, and have fun with it.

project is on the hold again to work on some of the other cars. finnaly found another rear armrest for the tbird seat. had to drive down to roseburg to get it. now makeing the tabs to mount the armrests.

also we have decided to pull the body off the frame on this car. since it is way easier to detail the frame plus we can have the compelte chassis painted and pinstriped. plus be able to paint the underside.
