    looks like a big gap in between the bumper and pan in the pics but its pretty tight in person weeeeird. gotta wait t ill the bumper comes back off so i can attatch it to the body the right way instead of being tack welded

    Well Flop, Im moving outside of town. Tired of the foot traffic past my garage when I'm out there working, had some kids break into the wife's car about 5-6 weeks ago, broke the window out for her CD player, dickheads (damn cop was asleep inside the house too- never around when you need em. lol)

    Im downsizing the garage by 2' on one side but gaining 2' in the ceiling!!! possibly a lift in the future or a 3rd car garage!! shhh dont mention that to the wife.lol

    Well man have fun and wear safety glasses man. You only have two eyes.. and if you lose one or both well this may never get done. and well I won't ever be able to sleep at night then.

    Move went ok, I have quite a bit of gym equipment I have aquired so my first thing on the list was to make a home gym. 9 days later a cement room was transitioned into a complete home gym, rubber floors, gray walls with mirrors! The wife loves it and man it turned out great. Now the 2nd step is to finish the garage. I got all the wiring done and I'm just waiting for the electrician to show up and put a separate box (learned the last time, even if I know what I'm doing the Inspector wants to see my Electrician License- had to pay someone to come in and tear out my work and redo it) blah. I'll be drywalling and moving my project back into the garage shortly after. Its in a storage unit just begging for some attention.

    Well man, glad to hear its actually going to get seen out but I hope you keep you eye on perfection and don't let that deadline get the best of you. Thanks for inquiring about the move sorry if I was long winded. Im just tired of moving and that stuff.

    I bet that good hand still fits a cold can. At least have a few and plan your next move.

    hand is back together atleast i think so it feels great.appointment with the plastic surgeon tuesday.im in some removable cast thing now and its been getting removed for some tig welding for the past few days on that damn scooter.i am def gonna need physical therapy though my arm is like half the size of the other one.. the break was much needed well the time break away from the shop. i see the pontiac in a new light now hopefully i can get back on it full swing. i also have a new motor coming for my 47 coupe so i will be getting into that soon to in hopes for getting it to drive to the round up.

    so keep some eyes out on my threads for some new shit happening soon.

    I NEED A 51 MERC FRONT BUMPER!!!!! STAT
