I went to the Doc yesterday and got the stiches out of my knees. He said Ill see you in a year! All good.
I have a nephew (Jr.) that wound up with three of his grandkids! One of them is knox a 15yr old young man that got shafted when it came to parents.
Knox is excited to be getting his driver's license, so him and Jr.
Went out and bought an old truck, Knox is all about the trucks!
Its not exactly what I would have bought, but they bought it.
It has plenty of problems!
They had it at there house under a car port, where they were working on it without any tools, then a neighbor started complaining that when they paint the truck overspray might drift onto there car! Geeze!
So I told them to bring it to me!
I started on the left floorboard, First I took a hammer and beat the **** out of it!
Then I made a couple of cuts.
I went out in the woods and found a matching piece of metal and formed a patch panel.
It fit pretty good! I found another weak spot and had to add another small piece.
I then just decided to cut one large hole and get it over with!
Thats enough for today.
When Knox and Jr. get some time, they are coming over and will do the grinding and painting, and we're just going to paint and undercoat the bottom side.
I have a set of six way power bucket seats that I took out of a Lincoln Navigator, for a future project! I think I found the project! They are even light gray, just like his interior.
We have an appointment in the morning at Jackie Jones Ford, Pat's Explorer has two minor recalls, the luggage rack could fall off! And the windshield trim could fall off, I doubt they will do anything but we'll get to go by the bakery and have breakfast with Trisha!
Hopfully I can start on the passenger side tomorrow afternoon.
Its just as bad as the other side!
Its tough to get back into the swing of things after being down for almost three weeks, but Ill get there.
