    We have been out every night since the heat wave broke, have not had to use the patio heaters yet, although I did have to burn them in, which is when I took the first picture. Having one of the water oaks out front removed in the next few weeks, and I'm planning Fescue sod in the back before...

    I seem to remember it taking more time to build, oh well, maybe it was the libations SWMBO had waiting for me out of the picture :angel: At least it feels balanced now.

    MrBill makes fire :evil: Burned in the new patio heater last night. 1/3 volume per their instructions for 5 minutes. Will await a cool evening to see if it holds up to it's 10x10 warming area or not, then figure out if we need another, and where on the back patio we will put them.

    The work of a homeowner is never done, 13 years, 4 color changes, now sanded down and repainted the original Hunter Green. Down 3.5lbs from the start of the project (me, not the paint coming off the wrought iron furniture), and yes, I have a great farmers tan, but stick a fork in me, I'm done...

    In the early days, before the internet, in order to properly restore a car, it took several other parts cars to do so. 5 cars restored under my belt before 1990 took 19+ cars (I think you get the idea) to get the proper, dated coded parts to do so. Racing consumed a bunch of others, as did daily...

    GM-WA9567-Artic White is the cleanest, crispest, brightest white I've ever run across. Believe it is only one, maybe two toners to mix, but have no current access to a mixing computer to grab a screen shot. Bill

    34 under my personal ownership to date (only 1 carbon fiber, a FFR), built/rebuilt/restored/etc, some where turn key, some were a hot mess, a bunch in between. Plenty of others I worked on for customers/owners when I still owned my bodyshop. Now, today, as mentioned above, I'm searching for...

    Actually a Tri Stage White Pearl, where Wimbledon White has a yellowish tinge to it, not quite a bright white from my experience with the color. I've had quite a few 64.5-73 Mustangs painted Wimbledon White. Bill

    Right place, right time, everything kind of fell into my lap two days before the seller was moving to Arizona from roughly 90 miles away from my home in SC. SWMBO told me I would be stupid not to buy the car for the price the seller told me. Attached is a side by side picture of both my car, as...

    Patching a fender liner.

    What type of vehicles is it, and is it in the front wheel well or rear wheel well? This retired bodyshop owner needs to know before he can respond with a solution. Bill

    Better patio shot, we tried, and continue to try a straight seed lawn, will see what the fall brings as we aerate and overseed, may end up tearing it out and placing sod (fescue) next spring. As always, time will tell
