Default You mean what is left of the HUP....

The frame and the black cab came from the "chicken farm" and will serve the Caldwells in finishing their own HUP...... it will serve best as a template for reproducing the floor plates and other components.... the rear of the black cab plus another cab may donate the complex compound curves of the rear corners and possibly the whole rear panel with door opening...but no door!!!

We could not verify the condition of the HUP frame but it is all there....

..... someone was heard saying that a "good body man" could fix it up in no time flat!!!!

Default Thanks so much for posting the video to youTube

Thanks Jordan for posting video, really makes me sorry I could not make it this year. Also sets me wondering how long it would take me to drive up in one of my CMPs for next year. Maybe if I left now I could make it.

Great video, particularly like the one with the rider on the running board. I usually find that about the time I hit 3rd gear they start looking worried.

Do I see a CC#? video ala YEAR OF THE BLITZ.

In case you did guess I really enjoyed the videos.

Cheers Phil

Jeff and Dan,

Good to hear that another HUP is on its way to restored glory. I do have one spare beat-up HUP door that could be used as a template.

Bob,

Thanks for the info. Maybe we will have time to restore the 43 HUP sitting in the wagon lines...from our wheel chairs...
