Re: 1954 Chevy / S10

Gday Shannon,

Just chipping in as well on the new house venture and want to wish you the best of luck as well. Unfortunately though as we all know, those walls on the 3 bay shed will rapidly creep in and you'll wonder where all the room has gone! They can never be big enough!!! (I know thats a little bit tounge in cheek of me as I know that you know how much room I've got to play in.)

Great work on the headlights too man. They look sweet!

Trently.

Trently, I know you can never have enough space . I can feel the walls creeping in already. There is at least space that I could add on or put a pole building up at a later time. I would get lost in that building your working in. Have a good one.

Re: 1954 Chevy / S10

What a s!@##y past couple days. This weekend the roof started to leak (we were going to sell our house) THEN this morning 12 inches of water in the basement. And I am still pumping with a gas powered 2 inch trash water pump and it is still coming in. THEN I found out that I will only be priming the 54 truck and the owners are taking it back because of tight times. I understand, I know how things are , this is a luxury. Then the Durango my wife drives, died in which it only battery. So we are now not moving because of all the bad stuff , I think it was a sign. Hopefully it will be better tomorrow although we are still to get more rain the next couple days. I think tomorrow I am moving my metal working tools out of the garage and moving the wood working tools in. I am trading in the trucks and I am building the ARK.

Re: 1954 Chevy / S10

man that sucks, I feel you. Last week was summer, this week feels like a rainy fall season. I guess it really does pour when it rains!! It will all pan out, it always does. Hopefully you can get a place with a bigger garage soon.

Re: 1954 Chevy / S10

99 to Life, Yes, when it rains it pours I am still pumping. I just looked and I still have 3 inches of water. Things always work out. I may be able to work on mine now( which means a build and always lots of pictures). I have a couple of friends that have work for me already. I have a lot of great friends. I just think it was not meant to be. Trying to stay positive.

If you were to build it, I'm sure that ARK would have something like suicide doors, nosed bow, lowered deck and floating on bags and be as sharp as a tack with the talent you have!… So sorry to hear of your bad run Shannon. I hope the future becomes brighter for you real soon. Hang in there mate. Trently.
