You continue to impress me.

People often have no idea what hides under a bit (or a lot) of dirt.

Tyres look great.

Well done.

Tried upholstery for the first time with good results. The old armrest cover was cracked and dried so I made a new one out of some spare vinyl I had.

TJ, I was going to ask him the same thing, but I figured it would actually be better to have door arm rests to begin with. :lol::uhmk:

Today was the start of a 4 day long weekend:metal: got lots done. We had some good weather so I rolled the truck out of the garage and tackled the front driver floor area. Also cleaned up the welds on the door corner and the gas filler patch.
Bare metal

well today I turned 16, the minimum age to go to picknpull:metal:. So I'm going to do some hunting around at the yard today for some parts such as a slip yoke so I can get my driveshaft shortened. I'll also be getting my licence in a few days and want to have it ready for the road sometime soon so I can drive it :chevy:

Thanks tj, how does it work in Oregon? In bc you can get your learners permit at 16 and your novice licence at 17. With your learners you can drive as long as you have a parent in the vehicle

Here in Oregon at 15 you can get a permit that requires a licensed driver of 21 years or older to be the passenger. Then at 16 you can get a novice license and when your 18 you can get the regular class c. :chevy:

Got the jeep door stops installed on the drivers door. Used the jeep rear door stops so that it would open further and have a holding point. I shortened them about 3/8". It has enough space so the door does not hit the cowl
