Couple pics because I'm sure I have left you guys out of the shop progress..





No shop is complete without a chipping green.

Dad inspection.

Urinal compromise, the seat stays up.





It's coming along, it would get done faster but people keep giving me advice that.(....wait... everyone sit down...) I listen to.

Well darn. Maybe if I identify as a person with a vagina? No, science doesn't work that way? Guess I'll stick to my beer, guns, and saying crap I regret later. I'm an American and I earned it!

She sits on a short bed frame, with a 351 Cleveland stuffed in there. Crown Vic front end, Explorer rear, to give it power rack and pinion, 4 wheel power disk brakes, and coil over suspension. I have the new wheels and tires and a new drive shaft going in this weekend. I have a YouTube channel that is dedicated to this truck. I love old muscle and keeping them alive. I've done all the work myself, learned if I didn't know how to do it. Welding, body work, paint, everything. This is two years in the making and I try to keep a steady (albeit slow) pace.

Sherri announced she wants to take a dip in the pool. I thought that was rude but I am going anyway.

Nice. I can turn wrenches all day but bodywork is something I never got the hang of

Lots of tools and no room. Don't have a sand blaster yet and only a couple spots left to put one. Can I ship what I need blasted to you?

Thanks Lou, I figured I'd get ahead of the curve with a non-gender specific urinal.
