Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Under my wife's supervision I put some old rims & tires that I had laying around on the 59 Buggy and a slight general cleanup. I think it looks better (couldn't look any worse) I also ordered some rear fenders that aren't all mangled. Bodywork done!

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Modified the dust /chip collector. Works well and I don’t need to empty it as often as before .
I also finished up the little spice rack . My dumb ass broke one of the 3oz Ball jars so I have to buy another.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Closing in on this remodel job I'm doing for a friend. Got the sheetrock finished up and painted. I built some pantry shelving that turned out really good. I'm a little envious of that pantry. It should serve them well. We put in a ventless gas wall heater in that room for emergency heat.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I'm not a pro at it, but the secret is lots of thin layers and tons of sanding.AND flat paint.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I put the stock wheels back on my Jaguar. It handles much better. The kids in the neighborhood call it the "Gangster' car.
