Good to know he's ok...any idea if he ever finished this truck? I still drop in from time to time just to see if it ever got done!

That's a bummer...great project. I'll check back in a couple more years!

I hadn't been on GJ for several years, but this was one of the threads I was hoping had final progress pics updated...such a great project and incredible quality of work being done. Hopefully it's not fallen down behind the workbench...

Catch me here or over on acuralegend.org (same SN) when you're ready to start on it. We have lots of experience with these cars and can offer some help if needed. /end hijack!

Great thread! Tell Tin to hit me up on www.acuralegend.org if he's not already on there for the AT>MT swap. I recently did this as well.

I'm falling along the same lines as crashbumper... I'd be interested in a M6 - M14 assortment with nuts, hex-head's, and washers. Multiple pitch as well. Doesn't need to be a huge assortment for me, something in the $200 range plus shipping would suffice. Otherwise, I'll probabaly end up at...

w00t! Time to go clear some space on the garage shelves!!! :bounce:

And can afford to buy his own Epoxy-Coat foor kit!?!!? :D :lol_hitti

Assuming I've already won one of the kits, I'll have to inform my other personality to come up with something funny to say...his garage is worse than ours is! Roses are red, violets are blue, I'm a schizophrenic and so am I!

So I just walked downstairs and measured my garage...532 sq ft :lol_hitti You should totally give it to me, because it only coats UP TO 500 sq ft, and I'll be too afraid to use the kit since it may not actually cover all of my garage and I'll be able to put the boxes and cans of your product...

I'll probably be interested in some of the metric grade 8 stuff - LMK when you're ready to take orders

Hmm - thanks for the info Mickey O. I'm trying to get rid of some clutter and if it's not an "OH WOW" vise, I'll probably just trash it and move on! In related news: Anybody in Austin, TX want a big ole heavy chunk of broken vise!?!?! :D

I have an old vise that came in an auction lot of mixed steel and it has a broken screw thingy (what is this thingy called anyway!?!?!) and I'm wondering if the vise is worth it to try and repair, or should I just scrap it and buy a new one? I guess what I'm looking for is a short answer of...

w00t! Finally finished up my bench this weekend - now to get the rest of the garage organized!!! :lol_hitti Added a compressor room for my 33 gl Craftsman - it takes about 40% of the noise away and I'm ok with that. It's all open in between the shelves so there's plenty of open air for the...

Question for you guys - I'm wondering if using these allen head bolts (like the ones JakeD mentioned) with some drop in anchors to mount my bender in the garage would work for mounting the bender and not just filling the holes when not in use. If the anchor is 2 1/4" long, and I was to buy 2...
