Re: Previous owner '68
Too hot to paint anything but I will shoot primer since a bunch of it will get sanded off.

Did some stripping on the tailgate today. I don't really like stripping...

Re: Previous owner '68
Well, the weather is finally cooling down a bit so I decided to get in the un-AC'd part of my shop and pull an engine for this truck. It's coming out of this jimmy.

Re: Previous owner '68
Ran when parked (at least I parked it!). Going to tear it down, inspect it, and then do a budget build on it. Don't most engine projects start this way?
A pretty busy day for an old guy working by himself.

Re: Previous owner '68
And one greasy, worn-out transmission, to match one greasy, worn-out old dude.
