Thanks Marc, have you had any time on yours? Looking forward to your, Iceburgh's and Pokerpossum's updates. Been pretty quiet in AD Burb building activity lately.

Back on the 52 Buick Saturday. Buddy reinstalled original front clip so we could set ride height and rake for a bunch of measurements for the Progressive Automotive or Fatman clip. Maybe a little low here. Spent a lot of time standing around staring thoughtfully at it and watching the Velocity channel.

Sunday afternoon was awesome shop time. Cooled off here enough we didn't open the shop doors. Fixed the last rusted area in the fender mounting area. Cut out the bad, installed a wider piece of 19 gauge behind held in initially with self tapping screws, plug welded it then installed the replacement piece for butt welding. Ground welds and sanded smooth.
