I'll get my medical renewed if I can get a couple hours in that!!!!!!

Actually building a wooden frame plane, I would love to be your gopher for a time!

All those fasteners must add some pretty good weight.

Nice work on the plane! Body work can be a royal pita sometimes!

Ditto I have the same problem on the cab of my truck. I think the bed will cover most of the major PITA spots, but we'll see. Still waiting to get it back!

Well not much to report on the truck, still doing body work on the cab, very little . The job has taken all the ambition out of me. Here's a few pics of the SE5

That's sweet! Thanks for sharing the pics too, it is appreciated.

Ditto, love the the plane work.

OK here's a bit of the forty.
I wanted to raise the rad. 1.25 inches and this is what I came up with. Leaf spring bushings and frezze out plugs. When tightened down they have just a touch of movement. I will blast and paint the plugs black.
The others pic's are my body work.



All thoughts welcome .

Brilliant!

Nice work on the truck! The blocking looks like it is going well. The airplane is coming a long nicely too!

Here's a few pic's of the inside of my winters quick change rear, the quick change section.

Jerry I can't wait to hear it. I have never heard what they sound like so I'll be wondering if its right.

You'll have to post a video of it so we can hear it!

Well its been slow on truck but here's a plane pic.
Just been painting some small parts for the truck as time allows which isn't much. Have a job sure is cutting into my hotrod time, but it sure makes buying parts easier !
