yup, sure do Tom.


By the way, great picture of you and your wife!!!!!

Dave,
I thought you might take a picture showing all the projects in your garage.

I don't think we have enough bandwidth for that.

Not enough things to do yet Dave or parts for you Maro?

Toms T is looking good, I'll have to come over and switch it with the one in my garage, the one Tom is trying to get the doors off of.

Wasn't me man!!!!!! Finally supposed to start warming up this week anyway.... As Tom suggested, got to get a pic of the inside of the garage before projects get finished and gone.... Maybe I can get the big door open when it warms up and get some.... Lens isn't wide enough to get a pic of everything from inside!!!!!

And any of them yours Dave? Probly not, you are so unselfish, I'll have to get something in the line up so I can say I had the "Busiest man in Auto body" do some work for me!!

Well, my 'maro and Ranchero are both in there....Haven't done a bit of work on the Ranchero for 2 years, just mess around with my 'maro once in awhile.... Got to get Tom's coupe and Joe's Camaro done, then I should have a bit of time to get on my own stuff....

Dont start your own stuff yet, Dave. The guy who bought my 47 will probably be dropping it off to you to finish!
Well, first test run complete and other than really spongy brakes it went pretty good. A few weekends to button up some little things like wood for the bed, replace the master cylinder, put in the corner windows, and lay a floormat and I guess it's about done. Then I'm going to put the interior in my sons Firebird and take a few months off to collect parts, sell some stuff and get the garage cleaned out. Here's how she came out in the end. Thanks for all the support, guys. You kept me motivated.

Now you have me worried.... Was the guy who bought the '47 possibly from Watertown, SD??????

Here's a shot of how little room I have left.... Working on Tom's fenders today.... If you look close you can see my "work area" wedged between Camaro front ends.......... and my pickup is sitting outside with no glass in it and covered with a tarp!!!!!!

Not sure, he's sending a transport next weekend. What's your address? I'll just have him drop it off!

Pat,
Did I get that quote correct?

This past weekend I finished my tubular crossmember and painted it all to keep the flash rust away.


I mounted the cab yesterday I am going to fabricate some adjustable rear mounts because I want to tweak where it sits currently.



I am getting closer to body work time

the frame looks great! should be plenty strong!!!!
