    My shop sounds like Danny's. I have little goat trails that you use to get from one place to another and just enough room to stand in front of benches and floor-mounted machines. I've been trying for ten years or so to clean up and downsize. However, it seems to get more crowded every day.

    Baby steps…but this spring!
    Might even get motivated enough to do something today. Was going to go to the World of Wheels show today, but a buddy reported back yesterday that it’s got way fewer vehicles and too many repeats (& I hate that) so gonna save my dough and turn some wrenches instead.:cool:

    40 miles north would put you in Longview/Kelso. I missed out on a good car show up there because of this dizzy **** last year. I got an invite from some fellas at Rod Run last year. Nice boys.

    Apr 26   2.jpg Apr 26  5.jpg Apr 26  10.jpg Well I just figured I probably wont get this one done this year either. But I will get it done one day. Car is on steel springs with full suspension, and no airbags. Just a real clever guy who did the build.

    Planning to finish my '33 Plymouth coupe before November so I can drive it to Immokalee FL for the Rockabilly show and over to Daytona Beach for the Turkey Rod Run, lots will be changed, 1959 361 V8 and A833 instead of the 318 truck engine, 4" dropped axle and radius rods instead of the Mustang II setup, thinking Moroso gold and off-white for paint.

  19. I paid the insurance, checked some fluids and put on the charger to see if we could roar out of winter slumber. Got it to bark before I flooded it (302 with no choke), will try again. I’ll be satisfied to get another season on last years ride. 4D65FDCE-B0BB-48E9-A77A-435CC1E8E48F.jpeg
