Ok everybody, it's Friday and it's Autumn (there ya are, Tom!). Let's get this work stuff out of the way and have a fun weekend!!!!!!!!!!


Whatcha got planned?

(does she have a sister?)

Friday already? Let's see, laid out the frame for the roadster yesterday. Drug the motor out and fired it. Runs great. Wednesday built a A frame hoist out of some left over iron, some found casters and a chrismas China chit chain hoist. Picked up the front of the SS no problem. Deflected less than a 1/8". Tuesday pulled the motor out of the boat for winter storage and built a stand for it and the outdrive. Plumbed in the raw water strainer as long as the motor was out. Monday cleaned shop. Today get off the comp and get back out to the shop and keep bending and cutting on the frame. Welcome back Dave

Big date with the better half! A boat rip across San Francisco bay to Pier 39. Lunch at the Ferry building(nice restaurants there). Watch the Blue Angels fly over the bay, and check out fleet week!
Hot Rod Stuff - finish cleaning, and paint the oil pan, order a new timing chain cover, as the old one is missing an internal chunk of pot metal in one of the water passage areas, and consider how much debt to incur ordering other essentials such as new harmonic balancer, and billet alternator brackets!
The long block should be here next week, so next week will be the kicker!

taking all trim off car and cutting out all damaged metal. sanding car back down to get it ready to shoot again. trying to find a reasonable pair of seats to change out my old ones. spending weekend alone in the garage with no phone or kids

I got a cra show from morning til 3:00 then its off to a drag race in Moroco from 4:00 til 10:00 to finish off the long day full of nothing but cars.

Playin' on the 'puter for a while. Tech at Friday Night Drags tonight.

after two days get pick at and some grinding hoping i can see out of my eye soon been thru this many times just do not remembering it hurting so much

Workin' over the weekend tryin' to get this '70 Charger ready to spray Plum Crazy Purple....might make an outdoor car show tomorrow night....maybe start some concept drawings for a Nova project....and watch NHRA coverage.

I haven't been on here in a while... Geeze and it's Friday. I wont be working on any of my vehicles really. Going to try and part out this 96 S10 I have to get it out of the yard and start selling some 48 Chevy parts as well. Looks like I wont get much work done on any of my vehicles this fall or winter. I am saving my money and trying to start a mobile detailing and paint repair business so I wont have the time nor money for a long time. With no job and working to make money that goes right back into the business is hard so that means no money in my pocket to blow on any fun toys or hobbies.

Finish pulling the new electric feed and telephone wire out of the crawl space so I can get the shop wired ( so I can run more than a 60 watt light bulb )
Later Saturday afternoon help a friend move his 75 firebird from behind his garage and cut down 6 trees, so they can start his 30' X 56' building.

Oh man, annual blood test in morning then head to the shop to finish a time belt job for a customer. Then go tear baby girls drier apart and replace the thermal fuse and figure out a better vent system.Need to try and seal the shops lot before winter. Gotta get the sprint car winterized and on the roller stands and make room for it in the garage.Gotta stop that pesky small roof leak at the house.Need to finish the patch panels and shoot epoxy primer on the garage find 69 442 so it can go to paint. And need to get the metal work finished on the model A. All this and I still can't get that Severson character To come vacation in St.Louis for a few weeks. Dang I offered him a free plane ticket,free room and board,free food from Momma Laurie's kitchen,a free ticket to fright fest @ six flags over mid america, A ticket to Roxie's & the Hustler clubs in E.St.Louis.And a case of Velvet Red from the St.James Winery.
But noooooooooooooooooooo he's gotta treck off to Texas...

After a quick trip to Vermont and back, plan to finishing repointing my chimney, doing some fishing, take my 37 out for a ride( in the 70's for the next 3 days) , and then sit down and relax with a 6 pack of Labatts Blue

back to back races sat and sun to wrap up the season if mother nature agrees with us. put in a new cowl fuel press gauge and headlight switch today... hope I can find those 8 tenths I somehow managed to lose the last couple weeks
