    No contest. It’s Spiro locks. Only time I feel like throwing a piston through the garage door.

    Cab 4.jpg Cab 5.jpg Cab 6.jpg Attacking the dents in an otherwise pretty decent cab so I can get my 48 together to drive it to Victoria in July. A local rodder donated the cab to the project to get me going. He bought another cab for a yard art project and this one came with it unknown to him.

    Not much going on in the garage lately, but I’m lucky enough to have a new workshop under construction. It’s going to be a great new year. FF2CB23C-D38E-4297-9178-CEAB77D40FF3.jpeg

    Does an oil change and a new thermostat count? I’m lucky enough to drive my hot rods year ‘round as daily drivers.

    Had that line used on me years ago. What the occasion I mentioned was, I don’t remember. But I sure recall that line.

    Recall them while you can Johnny, mine are leaving me daily!
    Here's one of my Moms' sayings, it really has no relevance to this thread but it's a favorite of mine and sort of a public service announcement considering we (many of us) will be enjoying some adult refreshments.................
    "It's not the ice that makes you slip, it's what you mix with it".

    I ground down the casting imperfections and gave my Flathead a tri-tone red paint job over the weekend.
