Great pic. I love that car.
Easy peasy.... https://www.usshift.com/downloads/Q4-4R70WmanualG2.pdf?srsltid=AfmBOorKfXoLasbszlay3mzDjR5PxRktpvTn27XdkkxVkz4RV3ZGd20r
Congrats my friend. I still wake up at 4 every morning, but I have coaxed myself into going back to sleep for another 2 hours, but I’m up by 6:30...
So, did you ever do anything with your Y Block @AndrewZ? Guessing not since he hasn't logged on since 2022......ugh.
Unfortunately, the shop got the standard R3 batt insulation. The spray foam is for the living quarters, shop office, her garage and ther welding...
I'm still not sure what retirement is like.....I work 7 days a week 14 hour days. Dr. Dave, hurry up and we can all hang out. I heard about a...
Spot on.
I would go 2-3 shades darker than body color or whatever color you think you may pinstripe it in. Maybe an ivory?
OK fixed the link.
It's not cheap, but they did a ton of foam. They sprayed about 2500 sf of living space plus the roof and then we had them totally spray the garage...
Bought some more junk for the office, because I have so much free space to store stuff. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I can dream.
So, I am sure I’ll have to send my plans to the county for their assessment. Otherwise they will tax me on the entire 6,000 SF. The foam is...
Looks like a great showing...
This is what they use to flatten it. It’s basically a chain saw with a special attachment. This is the wall after it’s leveled. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Spray foam guys are getting after it. I snuck in and snapped a couple of pics. This is roughly 8” of foam in the walls. A layer of closed cell...
That makes sense. I am putting it in a wood 2x6 frame. I just didn’t want them rattling every time I shut the door.
Not sure. I am just looking for something that looks right. I am leaning towards the VCT tiles, just because I think it looks right and wears...
Interesting. I would have never figured that.
I tend to go overboard. The details are what turn my projects into 10 year builds.
[ATTACH] I bought a 90 minute fire rated door to go between the shop and the house part of the Dust Bowl Headquarters. It has these straps on the...
The new sod is in overdrive. It only has a couple of spots where it is slow to grow, only because it’s where water stands. Come July, when...
I have always wondered if most guys only finished the top side of the mod and figured customs are a “hood down” car.
Thanks Mark, that helps.
In honor of the Custom Car Revival this weekend, let’s discuss a how to, on radiusing hood corners etc. I get the general idea, but I would like...
We have fiber here in the shop. I wired it with all Cat 6E. I have the office wired, all the TV’s. Etc. I have pre wired the walls for surround...
Sorry to hear that. I think that number is pretty low of you ask me. Mine is 50x120x18. If I were single, I would have an apt upstairs approx...
The spray foam guy shows up on Thursday/Friday and drywallers on Monday. I have been trying to make sure I have everything in place prior to him...
I have mainly been focusing on the house. Tons of infrastructure stuff, very little visual, hood ornament type stuff. Framed up the fireplace...
Don’t get a lot done this week. I did my best to save the planet. I am a tightwad, so when my AC guy left me a pile of insulated ducts, I had...
