Progress was made this weekend.

I picked up the front axle today 😎

Leftovers!!

My weekend had an extra inning. I took a mental health day and installed the patch panels. Body work to follow.

Today I started the driver’s side.

Yesterday I installed the replacement panels. Body work to follow.

Last weekend I removed the passenger side rear cab corner and prepped it for repair.

It’s good to hear from you John. I’m glad you’re settling in. I look forward to seeing your new digs.

Not much to report from this weekend. Nothing picture worthy for certain. We spent most of Saturday celebrating my son’s 30th birthday. He’s my youngest. I guess that makes me old! I did weld up some more holes. The count now stands at 44. I also removed 3 broken bolts from the cab floor. Two...

This Boker has been my EDC for the last 14 years.

I bought the VLE10 5 years ago. I can use it with my Honda S2000 or my K20 chassis’d 56’ GMC with no issues.

I really like the stainless strips Don!

Not much to show for my efforts this weekend. I spent 4 hours yesterday morning getting a hinge pocket patch panel to fit. I was in no hurry since my adhesive didn’t arrive as planned. Today I finished a small spot on the firewall I have been pecking away at, it’s close 🤷🏻‍♂️ The last thing I...
