  2. No problem. I appreciate the work. The guard needs a little more work and that's about it, for the dented pieces. Then I'll be polishing after that.

  5. Ford losing $132.000 on each electric vehicle it makes, probably feels like getting punched in mouth. That's what made me think about the Edsel

  6. Found another dent, when going thru the moldings that were in the "polish only" pile. There's always that one. Then you wonder, how did it get there in the first place..

  9. Indisturbance?

    Are those the finger notches on the backside of the wheel?

    The motor comes back out, Monday. Then I finish welding on the chassis. Next I'll use epoxy to cover the steering wheel.

    This is the motivation behind making the wheel. I've always liked the way this one looked

    I've learned a little, since the last time I've made a wheel. Betty Crocker would be proud of this chemical laden cake

  14. Sanding back the primer, where I can see rust coming up. Everywhere there's rust, the surface looks like this.

    Sheesh.. some people
