That'll teach Bob to take a day off.

I used the back of the '77 as a work bench while cleaning up parts for my tractor rebuild. Can't wait to get that done and move on to the rear end for hte '87, then the new motor and trans for the '77 then....

I did get a battery powered Sawzall for Father's day, should help with those 'remote' projects.

Re: My first "what did you get done" thread. cochino12 edition

Took my 50 for a 90 mile cruise, drove like a dream! Prior to fixing the pinion angle and drive shaft length it drove like a nightmare. LOL. Spent a relaxing Father's Day with the wife and kids, also managed to get in some garage time.

Happy Father's Day to all the Dad's on the forum!

Was Fathers Day weekend, so all I did was mow the yard and go buy me a used truck. No one was able to talk me out of it so I snatched it up.

Lowered the front 5" to match the back that was done last week. I then started fabbing up new inner fenders. I also took dad for a ride to pick up a new hot water heater on fathers day.

Began freshening up my interior. Dyed all the interior trim, dash, door panels, and carpet with SEM Shadow Blue. Been too lazy to start installing everything back but the fresh blue looks great! Very please how it turned out
