Hey GREAT NEWS! I found out today that I've over stayed my welcome. So I'm going to move my tools, mig, air compressor, Blazer, whatnots, lol, over to my old hang out. Over to the inlaws is a nice big garage we turned into a apartment thing, lol, several years ago. Down came the rollup door and up went a wall. So now, down comes the wall and up goes a door.... They don't use if for anything, not even storage and invited me to use it. So its mine until I'm done. Its gonna be a JOB moving everything over. Wish me luck.
On a nicer note, check out the sweet Thunderbolt One model my favorite aunt and uncle got me for Christmas! |

Hey J, hate to hear that you have to take time out of the build to relocate. Hope not a lot of ill will comes out of it. Good luck my friend.

Any cooking hardware? http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/a...1&d=1231505797 I'd call that a sweet set up! You'll never have to leave. :lol: |

Just went backwards page by page looking for a frame pic, cause I was curious about where you were with it and it's right on page one where this thread started. :lol: :cong: You have completed an amazing amount of work!! Glad I went back through it (took awhile) it's definitely a testament to persistence. :clap: |
Re: "Slowly but Surely" Big J's build thread...
It has damned near as many side tracks as yours does Kurt. We love them, keep'em coming. :haha:

Good news!!! With the kerosene heater I got it up to 75 from 45 degrees within an hour. I had to turn the electric heater off and the kerosene heater down. Should be no problem to paint in there.:metal:

Not much time in the palace this weekend (we named that building the palace a long time ago, lol). Went on a road trip with my favorite uncle and board member jamie72 Saturday and on a date with my wife today. Some progress is better than none though. Got my engine crane over and all chained to the tub. I should be able to get it high enough to shoot the underside pretty easily. Took the valve covers off, too tall so they hit the firewall. Gotta buy new ones I guess. I've about got myself talked into filling in the heater box holes in the firewall and doing something different. We'll see.....
