Wow, it's been a while since I updated this! Sad that TinyPic shut down and so all my original photos are gone. :( I still have them on my personal computer though, so they aren't lost. Just no longer shared with the world. I can't believe I've got this long without a vise though. That changed...

The compressor in my August posts was junked. I kept the motor and compressor to resell, but the tank had holes in it so I gave it to a friend to make a smoker out of. The Puma compressor was a brand new unit.

Now I'm part of the cool kids club! Seriously though, these things are a good buy and extremely handy.

Car parts are slowly starting to roll in for the fox. 4 or 5 months from now, you should see a completely different car! In other news, Santa came just a little early at my place!!!

Well, now I know why it was free. I was able to wire it up and try it out last night. The tank is no good. Multiple pinholes and leaks in the bottom of it. So if anyone knows how to get a hold of a 60 - 80 gallon tank, let me know.

Haha thanks! Yes, it's amazing how we can find bottomless pits to keep throwing our hard earned money into. Thanks for taking the time to look and for the compliment!

New addition coming soon! It doesn't work yet, missing a few parts, but it was FREE! :D

Oh, it's pretty much the same shenanigans as always. Come for the tech, stay for the drama. lol

Well thank you for the compliment, and the follow! The engine on the stand is currently a 302 that originally came out of the yellow/primer mustang. I bought the car as a roller and put an existing powertrain that I knew was good in it to get it up and running. Plan this year is to tear it down...

Also, the garage got a new addition!

Sorry for the late update guys. 2014 was spent working on my house rather than on (or sadly in) the garage. Yes I did, and thank you for following both threads. Though I didn't get to work on many projects out in the garage this past year, it has made for a fantastic escape and has also made...

Thanks for taking the time to look at my work and respond! Right out of college I had a job in KC and I worked in the evening on my projects in a large one car garage. I completely stipped one car down to a roller shell, and built another up in its place. I told myself that my next shop was...
