Thread: Happy Friday Everybody!!!! ---- Whatcha got planned for the weekend?

Tweet

So sorry for your loss, johnboy-I lost a Classmate (and my best friends' ex-wife) last week-these things are never easy or fun-it set me back, and I reflected on just how mortal we all are-

As for me, we are having 5 Grandkids (of 10) come over to spend the night with us tonight (Grandma's ecstatic!)-there's a Pillow fight to be had, and I'm the main target-

Tomorrow I am going pull the front sheet metal off of my Car (for the 6th, and hopefully, last time)-I have an original '35 Grille that I fitted for mock up, however I purchased a new Alumacraft Grille a few Years ago to give it more of a custom look-

I bought it with their Grille surround (it's fiberglass, and thank goodness that the quality on their Grille is good, for the surround took 3 rounds of Bondo and Epoxy Primer to get it up to my standards--I wasn't a happy camper when I received it (for what it cost), but it's the only Game in town so you make do)-

After I get that done, I have to re-do my Radiator support Rods-I bought the Vintique long stainless ones, and, after figuring out the best way to bend them to fit around my Hilborn (without marring them up-a tubing bender works well that's greased, using heat shrink tubing-I buy it in 4' lengths), I cut the first set about an inch too short, so, I bought another set and will re-bend and shorten-

I have to start planning exactly where to put my Stereo and Speakers next, as I have some of that stuff on the way-
