Life stuff been getting in the way, plus I've been knocking off a few shop things...

Got the 49 Chevy Truck doors done, gave one to my uncle on Christmas and put this one up in my garage... I wanted to get a bit of practice painting and have enough confidence to actually paint the whole truck... I'm pretty satisfied with how these turned out.



I made a mount for it that hooks to the three bolt holes where the door handle would go...


Also, like practicing with painting these doors, I'm practicing my welding as I'm planing on doing most of the body repair w/ this little 220v mig welder of mine...

Plus I want a better air compressor for painting! Used some extra wheels I had floating around... a little overkill but it will roll!



I put this together from a $50 craigslist find to run my welder... My sep. garage only has 120v and since we are moving in a few months I'm not real interested in spending $$ on something that won't go to the new house....
