Thanks Z. 7 days straight is a killer. How do you do it? For the past two years we all worked 6 days a week at my job, and it just plain got to us. We only had Sundays off, and it became the day we did laundry and got ready to come back to work. Finally, one day we all sat the owner down and said we were going to only work Monday thru Friday, and that was that. He didn't like it, but he knew we were serious and would all leave if he refused. So now we work 5 days a week and are cranking out the same numbers every week because everybody is more refreshed on Monday morning.
Hope you don't have to keep up that 7 day pace too long guy. Oh, the headlights...........yeah, like I mentioned, last week I put 3 different sets on there, and these are the only ones that fill up the front and give it the look I was after. Gonna have to convert them to Halogen, but I understand there are kits to do that.
James: Thanks, I'm anxious to see your "barn find '27" when you get started on it. One thing that is hampering my welding is that I just don't see as well as I used to. I turned down the darkening on the helmet, and that seems to help, and now that I am getting more practice my welds are getting a little better. They hold fine, but just look crappy. I am going to concentrate on getting them better, and I keep asking Dan for tips when he is doing it, so I may turn into a almost-respectable welder yet.

The first model car I built was a 32 Ford roadster by Revell in the mid 50's.
How did you get hooked on cars?
