Projects 59 El Camino.. Part Two

I got nothin'! But that's funny, though..

 

Then you will be speachless with this one. Was looking for a clip and typed in, Sanding my car and Dancing. Check out what came up under that heading. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ca1ouyj538c

 

That's my problem.. I haven't been dancing! I'd hate to have ta buy those bras!

 

Why?, they could serve Double Duty. They should make it across the front of the Elco easy

 

You're probably right, they're about the same width!

While waiting for the side winds to subside, I was able to take this pic.

 

if u look close she is not wearing a bra

 

Her ol' man keeps stealing 'em, to protect the paint on the family truckster

 

thats just wrong one would make a hell of a water balloon slign shot tho

 

Any new updates on the projects?

 

I will be back on the fitty nine, tomorrow. Working at the machine shop, today!

 

I just rcvd these pics of Jim's spin, from yesterday. I snapped a pic of the 'concern' sticker when we got the rdstr to the return lane.

 

WOW! that could have gotten real ugly,good save

 

It was hard to watch, after I pushed him off in the truck. I wanted to haul ass down there, cos all I could see was the dust. He said the tires were squealing as he spun. He's spun once a Bonneville, the one time he put in the posi. But that was totally different sound, he said. The sidewind was 12mph at the start line and 21mph at the finish line, when he was running. He was having a great run on a good tune, with it pulling HARD in 4th. Glad he was okay, bummed cos he was having such a strong run. Eeessh!

 

That'll put a wrinkle in the upholstery!

 

I agree with you! I told him he needs to iron out the pants of his fire suit.. cos they had a nasty wrinkle, going on.

 

Never mind that brown stain........

 

Truth be told, he was calm as could be. I was the one, all riled up.

 

Back from the machine shop, I got tried to get somethings done. Taking the front end apart I had to cut the bolt loose, fucking up the tie bar. Welding the new piece in, I melted my lead work away on the front. I need the practice anyway.. oh-well











Then I had to add more lead. I'll finish it up tomorrow



I was also working on the door on the left. Took a trip, to loud ol' bangs-ville







The lower corner of the door



Removing rust



Now I can get down to business. Monday, I was over at Gordon Forbes hse, for quite a while. Learned A LOT, Motivate!



Getting there..

 

LARS today

Waiting to get in

 

My favorite vehicle there.. 36 SD



Nice to finally see the car in person

 

Holy shit, that Stutz is mindblowing, what an amazing piece of engineering.

 

The note on the side of it said out was a 100k to build back in it's day. I don't know when it was built, I'll have to do a search. It was cool to see, though

 

the elky is comming along jj , thanks for the great pics of lars

 

Not as fast as I'd like, an I'm sure you know the feeling. I am going to re-do this 58 Chair , Black with Red Guts! So I'll be side tracked on it, for a short minute. Your carbs are amazing and congrats on all your progress!

 

thanks man , thats 58 chair looks awesome , i cant wait to see it black with the red inside , yah i know the feeling at time these projects seem like there going on forever

 

A trip to the paint store ystrdy, resulted in me buying some '150' grit, longboard sand paper for the first time. I'm stoked how quick it sands! I wish I had it sooner, but I'm glad I have it now.

 

I came across these again, today. I've always thought they were cool. So I did a search for replacement stickers, but they're not the same.

 

Still have some blocking to do, but once again.. it's gettin' there!

 

Looking good!
