You can do your body work in this weather, actually makes things go faster.

Yea I know,I can do it early on the w-end before it gets too hot.
Its not the work,its me in the 104 deg. in full sun....

We moved my daughter & son in-law in are rental,but he has a 65 GMC
sitting in the work area right now,trying to get him to sell it because
he doesnt make enough money to restore it.....

Decided to play hooky from work,an do some body work on the Bump
today.First,I got rid of the side moulding,took out the rivets,an ground
dowh any burs.Not sure what Im going to do about the holes,would
like to see if I can weld fill them.
Probably get some sanding done today.Sanding is going quite easy,as
the old paint has lost its durability...

 

[NEWFIE F-150]

shes a sweet old truck

Thnx...

Ive been putting my hobby off so I can do more on the truck.
Im losing interest in the rc's anyway,Im thinking about cleaning them
up an packing them away for about 6 or 7 years,an handing them over
to my Grandson.

Its time to start giving the old truck some love while Im still able.
Hand it down to the Grandson so he can show pops it way better than
his chevy....
