It's Sunday night, What did you get done??

Cut my fire wall down on the 34 for more transmission clearance. Cleaned up the garage from a total rewire on truck,Throw all the wifes **** in the garage in the trash since it met the 3 day rule. Oh yeah held the couch down to make sure it did not get away for the rest of day.. Grilled some good fat steaks on the grill with corn on cob and baked potatoes.. Now its not 600 degrees outside I think I will go back outside and put the truck on jackstands to change trans pan gasket..

 

looks good jimmy!! i got my new chrome wheels on the roadster.

 

Built a dragster trailer.

 

friday night, took the whole family to see steve miller band, both my boys (4&8) loved it.
Saturday: soccer practice, baseball practice for the boys, then went downtown to meet up with my wife who was showing her car at the local carshow, then cruised the wagon later in the eveing at the end of the summer cruise on jefferson st.
Sunday: tack welded the loose rivits on the pulley of the 235 in the wagon... the rattling sound was getting really annoying

Got my annual state inspection done on the 34. Good for another 12 months of goofing off. Got closer to moving my daughter out to her new college apartment. Got her computer and network set up. One more week and she will be gone. I know I'll miss her, but......... a little peace and quiet may be theraputic.

Next week I got to get back to work on both the 34 and 57.

 

Well went to the gym then to autozone for a fuel filter for my new 51 chevy and flushed the radiator in my s-10 drove in my buddies 57 chevy and had to jump start it at the gas station. It was some funny ****!

 

Bought my 1st project.

1958 Oldsmobile 88

Got some sore spots but beautiful none the less!!!

 

Built a rollbar for the T. Pics posted elswhere.

Kerry, Nice trailer, but finish the car dude!

 

I finished building the fuel tank for my RPU - I'm moving it underneath. Here's a picture of it, but it isn't finished here. I was going to take pictures of it earlier, but I got sidetracked and forgot. My plan is to run the filler neck through the lower portion of the bottom rail on the bed and out into the fender well in front of the tire.

I'm thrashing to get it finshed before the HAMB drags.

I worked on my '29 Dodge Brothers, it hasn't run since 1960. It's still kicking my ***, gas kept running out the carb, but I'm close.

 

Gettin' ready for a hurricane. sh*t

 

worked on blenden the flat spot on the front of my 52 fender where the original grill goes so i can have nice curve on the front for when i make my custom grill.

 

Worked on making the mounts for my new aluminum radiator. Got the A/C condenser and the overflow tank mounted. Polished the fan shroud and mounted the fan on it. Have to polish the top tank yet. Still have a days work to finish it.

 

Got the straight eight running in the 53 buick That i saved from the crusher. Just had to dissemble and clean the carb it fired right up idled smooth no smoke or blow by. Took all the seats and floor mats out. Found a 65 dime and lots of floor pan rust. Also i didnt know 53 buicks had a heater under the front seat? OldWolf

 

Had some visitors from the cities Saturday. Showed Jake my pinched '32 frame for a '27. Did a war dance when he called back later and said he would buy it. Worked on the front spring perch for my modified. Got the yard work done today that I've been puttin' off all week.

Spent the day friday moving my bro-in-laws stuff from the front of my garage to back by the roll up door. Now I can use the side entrance door and all of my work bench. Did a little more saturday out in the garage then went with the extended family up to Ricketts Glen park for a picnic and swimming. Went to my wifes families reunion today. later shawn

 

Well I started on my interior for the 51 Friday nite, sewing it up myself. This is the first interior job I have ever tried to do so it will be interesting to see how it turns out. Oh did I mention that I am sewing it on a 1911 Singer Model 27 Treadle machine? How traditional can you get huh?
I did the package tray (white vinyl pleated) and also sewed the inserts to my door panels (metal flake gold pleated). I will post some photos of everything when I get a little further down the road. And I will keep up with the cost to give you an idea of what it would set you back by doing it yourself.

 

See my post ***led "Another Merc Engine Gone". I had a great weekend.

Spike

 

tore another olds motor apart! ugh! maybe get new parts soon!!!!

 

Go my EMS Rocker panel, rear floor suport and pan welded in my 1950 Shoebox. Finished polishing the bock, Flatty of course. Started to sandblast the control arms, but my gun went out on my blast cabinet, so I got one off of Ebay today.

I also picked up a 24' metal I-beam so I can set up a trolly system in the shop, so I can remove the body and start working on the frame. Should have it set up by the end of the week.

Great weekend for me!!!

 

worked on the civic for my wife,god i hate that car more and more. CV axle was ready to fall out. now i can't figure ,on the drivers side,i could pull that one right out, came right through the strut fork,but on the one I did today, no go, had to take the entire dam suspension apart to get it out. aughhhhh. at least she helped me and got nasty and greasy along with me. what a pain in the ***.

 

I fixed a gas leak on my 36' tank on Saturday along with prepping the rear end for my 37' for paint. I modified a set of late model Jeep rotors to fit my stock hubs of my 37'. The wife went into labor Sat night but then stopped...gave me Sunday to work on the tent trailer I just got. Sunday also allowed me to paint the rear end for the 37'. I may have a roller in a couple of weeks!!

 

Burned up about $60 bucks in gas going to the Turlock swap meet, that was totally worthless unless you were looking for.

Clown cars for sale
Real fat chicks
Camaro & mustang parts
Old bottles & lamps

Now that I think about it I could have picked up a nice saddle and road some big gals.
Oh well drank beer with friends in the shade and met some hamb guys. It was a good day.
