25.01.2022 What a great show...but its only Anne & David here So looking forward to having Herman himself at the show next year!!

25.01.2022 The frustration we have at the slow start to Hermans life is overshadowed today at the awe of our builders! Such attention to detail & consideration of all things practical & cool! What a transformation as we see him taking shape more & more. So looking forward to seeing him on the road in 2020!

24.01.2022 Were pretty excited that Herman our Hot Rod hearse is coming along nicely! Heres his blingy Chevy 350 engine!

23.01.2022 Almost ready for the journey to the upholsterer/trimmer! Then he will be put back together, along with the fitting of his new blingy wheels & glass. Oh yeah...finally the end is in sight

23.01.2022 Loving Herman! And pleeease... if there is a Hot Rod God, we would like him on track to be ready by Christmas! That is all

22.01.2022 Precision panel building!

22.01.2022 Now this makes us realise how far we have come!! Early beginnings - slowly but surely coming to fruition

18.01.2022 Despite the turmoil and anxiety in Herman’s household, it was nice to see him at the builders open day - getting lots of admirers

18.01.2022 It was so great to see a fabulous article about our hot rod hearse in the latest edition of Australian Street Rodding! Hes going to be a beauty

17.01.2022 Despite the turmoil and anxiety in Hermans household, it was nice to see him at the builders open day - getting lots of admirers

13.01.2022 In a COVID world Herman seems a little crazy right now but with his making being long & often anxiety ridden, hearing him for the first time today was awesome!!! 4 words...MUSIC. TO. OUR. EARS! Not long till paint

12.01.2022 It turns out that building a hot rod hearse was a bigger project than we anticipated. But hes so going to be worth the wait!! Were very grateful for the professionalism, support and expertise from the team at Detroit Chassis

11.01.2022 Funnily enough not a whole lot has been going on in the world of Herman. But here’s a pic from a bit back of his shiny black fire wall, giving us a glimpse of what’s to come! Looking fantastic! Fingers crossed he will soon be on the road...come the new yearWhat a journey

11.01.2022 ...And then there were wheels!

08.01.2022 Did you know that back in the day (1920s/1930s) emergency Model A Ford vehicles...ambulances, fire trucks, along with hearses, were built pretty much like our hot rod hearse! On a model AA truck chassis with running gear, engine, gear box & differential, that was sent to the coach builder for modification. We love the history of these old vehicles. (Although Herman is going to look quite a bit different to this! )

08.01.2022 Just like that after two years... here is our practically finished hot rod hearse! He’s a beauty!

07.01.2022 Herman is getting there!! whod think it could be so tricky choosing which style of chrome wheel & which shade of black! Almost all the engineering & mechanicals done. Our builders are now making a push on the panel work

07.01.2022 Now things are getting real!!!

07.01.2022 Building..building!

05.01.2022 Great news for us today as our engineer prepares to sign off on all Hermans necessary vehicle reports in order to proceed to registration. I loved his parting words - ‘I think Henry Ford himself would be proud to take his last ride in this car’. Now that’s saying something

04.01.2022 Hermans humble beginnings...as a 1930 Model A Ford from a totally different era! Old foundations making the start of an exciting transformation

02.01.2022 Minor details in the grand scheme of life! But nevertheless were happy that a decision has finally been made on Hermans gorgeous wheels!!

02.01.2022 A glimpse of a very cool dash/interior... Hard to believe... after two years we’re nearly there!

01.01.2022 So all is on track for Herman to rumble in to be registered, with his grand arrival to Vic Roads in mid January! Can this actually be happening!! He looks amazing!
