crazy car guy on the boards

[Crazy Car Guy]

Howdy folks form eastern ky.
ive been lurking for a while reading but i decided to join today.
i am a retired car guy now i do projects that i choose to do and send the others down the road if i dont feel like doing them. right now im in a temporary 15x24 building with a gravel floor doing a lot of paint and body work until i can find more fill to get my pole barn built. i am currently in the process of restoring a 1956 chevy 210 paint is done and it is in the buffing / reassembly faze right now.
well i reckon thats enough about me

Thanks for the pic! Nice car. Looks like a crisp reflection in the paint. Keep us posted on your progress.

I give you a ton of credit for tackling a project like that outdoors and in a small temporary building.

thanks for the words of encouragement! the car took a lot of prep work to get the body straight its had a wet sand and rough cut polish i will do the fine cut after its assembled to get a good shine. were it is sitting now will be under roof soon. my biggest problem was lack of fill dirt. that to the right is a creek and i already had water 2" up on the low side of the pad once so i want more fill and a 2 ft berm around it just to be safe. that is one of the easier projects i have going right now. i have a 1969 torino gt that i have already cut in half at the fire wall and replaced the whole front unibody soon as the 56 is done i will put it away and cut the 69 floor pan out and replace it with a nice donor then it gets a full back half and full quaters. i need to squeek my personal 70 torino in for a full new interior and a color change. i have no issues working in the 15x24 i have a tool room in the house "spare non carpeted bedroom" and a 14x60 mobile home for storage and painting small stuff in. im a 2 red neck operation here and slow but i get to pick and choose the battle. my wife helps when she can and she can do anything i can do and even more.
a pic of the 69 in shambles all work was done out side on a gravel drive
