What OT crap are you working on

There's 50 shops in this county that do collision repair, I've had my fill of it lol. Generally nothing "newer". The blue truck is something I bought to fix and sell.

 

Holt **** man.

 

I always paint trucks that way lmao.

 

Was looking for a trans leak, found a broken weld as well.
Easy fix and is a good time correct a couple of things.

 

And now sometime totally OT, 20 years ago I sold a friend the hunting knife at the top of the first photo with out a sheath. Every time we see each other he forgets to bring the knife or we just forget about it. Anyways this summer at our annual get together at his ranch I tell him “Remember the knife” nope he forgets it at his house in town, but says hey I have another knife I need a good sheath for, the Bowie in top photo. He mailed the Hunter a couple weeks ago. I made him a sheath for each knife. So a 20 year saga comes to an end.

Wow @enloe ! Could have been worse. Hope you get well asap.

 

Obs is about finished, still debating doing the spray in bedliner.

 

66 Belair front seat, didn't get the back finished today, always something waiting when I get to the shop lol.

 

I have been working on my Tahoe and I knew there was no way I was able to put the tires back on by myself. I had a extra floor jack head so I added some flat stock and that saved the day. Rolled those big old 20's up a couple boards onto the jack and they were ready to go.

 

Found out today that the guy didn’t have a license or insurance.

 

Hope you have the coverage for uninsured or underinsured drivers!

 

That ****s, hope you don’t have any long term aches.

Drivers with no insurance probably have a net worth in the single digits. He should have gotten a ride in a cop car, but I doubt that happened.

 

@TA DAD - what a smart idea!

YIKES. I got rear ended in the company truck a while back. Was sitting at a light and glanced in the rear view to see a big-*** Mercedes Sprinter hauling *** straight for me. Had time to let off the brake before he bent our F150 in half.... knocked the spare tire out of the bed and forty feet up a parking lot. Dude never even touched the brakes.

 

Seat...

 

This pile of 2x6s is slowly becoming a surfboard for the roof of my woody wagon.

 

The 307 is all stripped down ready for the machine shop. It will be pretty trick when it's done... forged pistons, good rods, hydraulic roller and a set of aluminum heads that are matched up with the bore size. Why you may ask? Because I can I suppose. Plus when I tell em it's 313 cubic inches it will be fun to see the puzzled looks

 

Hell yeah! Love them small blocks...
