I'm glad you do! I figured only Randy would "get it"!... 'cause now I'm lost!

I realized over the weekend it's June and I haven't had it running long enough to go for a ride.

....and that "going for a ride" doesn't always end as one expects, either.

Sad but true enough!

Yeah, time flies when you're having fun!!! Doing some blocking and getting the rest of the little dings out of my pickup now. I only got it 19 years ago and already drove it .7 miles---

Now what you need to do is get another cool old vehicle to use as your only daily driver and start doing irresistable upgrades to it while still trying to work on the ever mushrooming '34 project.......then have some "powers that be" curb your enthusiasm with complaints about the noise you make while working on them....

Perhaps, I can help you with some color choices......

I had forgotten how yours had started... It was so long ago.. I only remembered you taking it apart and the neighbor issues..

It's that "blocking" that drags it down for me.. oh.. and the taping... and the priming.. then the color selection..

I'll put the repair into primer and call it good for the summer. When I painted it originally, the paint went well. The clear just never flattened out and in some areas no matter how much color sanding I did, I couldn't get the clear flat. it looks like it has chicken skin..
