What did you do to your "OTHER" project today?

I figured all of the other forums have one. So what did you do? I'll start, but it was a weekend ago.




I took the grille and light bezels off of the Buick and repainted the radiator support, light wells, fender wells and truck sill. My car has a cheap paint job, it was not cut in before it was sprayed. It looks better now that I covered up the orange mist. I also got a couple o2 bungs put on my pipes for wide-band.

Some people are like Slinkies... not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.

Re: What did you do to your "Dirty little secret" today?

Mine was last weekend as well. I almost finished mocking up the new almost-frame in my Chevy II. (Pardon the quality - it's a cell phone pic).



Now just to keep moving forward and get it all tied together...

And the front end of that Buick looks great! Nice detailing.

I do an awful lot of "looking" and not "doing."

Mostly because I'm doing a master walk in closet right now...
