Projects Two solid days of backbreaking work in the bitter cold...

Took my effie from this...


To this...


Yes, I'm building this ****er in my driveway... in Buffalo... in the middle of winter. BRRRrrr...

Boxed C-notch in the frame front and rear, CE rear lowering springs, flipped front axle. Gotta relocate the steering box and install the engine/trans this week!

 

Yes! I like it. Good for you.

 

damn! to cold to be motivated, especially when there is a bunch of the white doo doo on the ground.
kudos to you

 

The truck looks good, the weather conditions not so much!

 

That is hard core my friend.

I'm just getting moved into my first real shop. I swear its like heaven on earth!

 

I don't think anyone would have doubted your p***ion before Thunderbirdesq ....
But now it goes without saying , your an addict !

At least your creeper doesn't need caster wheels !

 

damn, I thought I was cold in my 50 degree garage. I consider myself a big puss now.

my man, that is DETERMINATION!!

 

almost worse to bring it in and have it defrost and drip all over you.

 

Your work is stunning but that does not sound fun.

 

Wow you are ********! I'm not that far from you and it has been in the single digits. I once put a motor in on a 0 to -10 degree weekend, but that was out of necessity.

 

i was out in the garage today.. 13 degrese out.

your a bad***!!!!!

 

You must be young! There was a day when I did that in the snow just to get to the next stage.
You go guy!

 

im with you man i have no garage either im outside also building my car ...looks good

 

Better than sweating. Maybe not.

 

Been building my Austin in this since last July. Just got it driveable around the end of 2010. You may want to consider one for under $200 to help keep your efforts going! I use a propane catylitic in mine to keep the worst chill off.

 

I've got a garage... it's just small and full! Someday soon I'll have a nice big shop... with heat!

 

I don't know how yall do it. Cold weather kicks my ***!!!!

 

i'll take sweat anyday !

 

I dont get it? You brushed the snow off and let the air out of the tires???

Dude, your nuts. Its to flippin' cold for me to be working outside. Lookin' good.

 

X2's or buy a tent

 

You're effin' nuts

but I do wanna shake your hand for being so ******** and getting the job done.

 

my question is.. how the heck did ya keep your fingers from freezing.. so you can actually work with stuff?

 

Now I really feel like a wuss, I didn't go into my shop last night cause it was in the 40's I waited till today to put the front end together.
You win.

 

Your a hard core dude!! I like it!

 

I drew a line in the snow this weekend. I was all ready to go out and wrench on mine a bit - but it's 1f right now. Should warm up a bit towards the end of the week. I hope.

 

All I can say is, you must be one tuff S.O.B.!!!!! I just came in from pulling the engine in OT El Camino & thought I was doing something.....& I have hot water floor heat!

 

Insulated leather gloves and strategic grabbing of recently torch-heated and/or welded components!

 

I heard you were out playin in the snow today! Truck looks good Andy..diggin the new stance.
You should think about building an igloo around that thing! At least it'll stop the wind

Tony

 

Im callin' photoshop shenanigans!! Its too cold to even think about being outside!!

Good for you,man! Its official...Im a big p-word!

 

what are your plans for it ..
