christmas special

My son and daughter came home for Christmas, so I got my son to replace the belts on my wife"s Subaru. I did the heavy lookin-on. Also got my new windshield wiper kit for my streetrod. That's my next project, can't get it inspected without them. Hope everyone had a nice Christmas. sc

I have the roadster torn down and wiped down with wax and grease remover. I have started to tape off the cowl and am going to repaint it and the two doors.
I also have to work on the upper RH door gap. It is good to be doing something again but I would rather be building than repairing.

Getting there......

A few pictures of before and after of the 56 I'm working on for a guy. It's coming together nicely I think. Spent today working on the details in the engine bay. Hope to set the front end back on Monday (fingers crossed).

Here are a few after pictures they didn't load the first try. Operator failure I'm sure

I'm not kidding Pugsy, that project is one hell of a target for us. That is the top, in fabrication, absolutely beautiful and a great thing for us to shoot for. What a beautiful build.

Brady got outplayed by a rookie and don't think he wants to play ball with Aldon Smith anymore. Hope Gissele gave pretty boy a nice massage after that loss.
