Getting back to work ,51 chevy progerss pics

Hey Gary, we'll have the Olds towed over on Monday. Can you finish it in time for us to drive to Paso?

 

Hey, Yeah right!!!! Wonder where I heard that before.

 

Are you going to Paso, this year? Seems I heard you were making the drive.

Don't think Krupa's changing anything from the first Roundup. Just smoothing out some rough spots to get ready for more suede and fixing some trouble areas in the drivetrain and suspension.

 

It looks like It's another year I won't make it. I actually had a room and such but canceled it all. Can't seem to get caught up enough to take off. At least Mike's Cad should go.......Looks I'm finally gonna get at least one of these critters finished. I'm kinda looking at going to one of the Custom events in the Midwest this summer. Maybe the KKOA thing in Columbus in July. I haven't been to one of theirs for years. Change of pace I reckon.

 

Looks good Krupanut. You keep letting that crew of hoodlums hang out at your place and the neighbors will be runnin you off soon.

I'm just hoping to get it back to the point I had it in before it went "south".

There is quite a few issues, depressing stuff.

How are ya holding up out there in wonderful Weir?

 

Krupa, got your ****** xmember fab'd. I need to drop by and see if it fits as well as the cardboard template did.

 

Your too much Reggie! Can't thank all you guys anough for your help.

Fatlucky stopped by on Sunday and took out the Tickle me Elmo headliner, Inproved the interior 100 %

We got the new coils in, cut 1 1/2 out of em'. Not much of a drop but looks kinda cool tail draggin'.

I got the dash in paint with help from Scotty and Chris on Saturday night. Almost have the p***. side frender straightend out.

Need to finish wiring the starter tonight and put the dash back together.

I was over at Scotts Sunday morning, we droped the tank on his 53 Ford. No wonder it kept cutting out, the tank was half full of rust! We got most of it out and he's going to try to seal it. I think it should be ok. It'll be nice to finally get one on the road.

How was the swap?

 

Wow! There they are Scott and Chris! That is a nice bike....I'm gonna have to get out there soon.

Hey Man........I reckon how I'm holdin up out here depends on which end of things you're standin.

Didn't you put a subframe under your Chev or am I remembering something completely different? It sounds like you're makin big progress anyway.

Ya better watch it with that Reggie helpin' ya cause you might end up with a flathead in it.

 

TexasTramp, SHHHHHHH! He won't know its a flathead until he pushes down on the accelerator.

 

You guys are cool, dammit.

 

Krupa,

Loved that car when I saw it at Round Up 02'. Good to see that your gettin it back together. More importantly, looks like you kids are having alot of fun.

However, you may just see if Reggie will give you a 32'. What's he got, like 10 of them? He'll never miss the damn thing!

Kustom55,
That's what I was suppose to be doing this weekend. Know of any boards for dads that are frustrated with building big *** swing sets?

 

LOL, trust me, it is hell! It still is not all together yet. I dont care anymore. Toys R Us has a guy you can pay like $50.00 to put it together for you. I might call him if it is not too late!!
