Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
Not a lot to report…
 Time was limited today, so I grabbed JoJo the shop dog and split town for the farm…  Sanded on the pass door, Spread some glazing putty, then took some pics of my plate collection and headed back to town…  Stay Cool Guyz and Galz!!!

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
Jojo seems happy.
Do you "collect plates" or just have a bunch from cars you owned before?

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
Was hoping to get up to Dwcardfan's today to fetch my new to me frame to replace my bent one…Alas, Life sucker-punched me...
No Worries though...  I did get the passenger door primed, and did that while enduring a very hot July day here in Arkansaw... Heat Index was bouncing at the 108F mark… Then at 8:20 this evening it was still hovering around 102F…Here are a few pics of the door before and after primer… Also one of JoJo catching some wind on the way back into town from the farm...

I love technology
I love Facetime and Skype. Good to chat and see your progress yesterday Don. That bloody Weedwhacker still impresses me most though.

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
Let the frame mods and cleaning begin… Soon anyways...
Started out just after 7am… Was able to get the time, and the son ready to roll early… After filling the petrol tank and our bellies with McD's Breakfast Biscuits, JoJo crashed on Jeremy for a good portion of the ride...After a couple of hours we were in Strawberry Arkansaw visiting with Donnie, AKA Dwcardfan... With the help of his tractor, we loaded the frame, checked out his build, scored a driver's side stepside fender sans spare cutout, and gave JoJo a chance to sniff around Donnie's farm… We also got to check out his Camaro, but I forgot to get any pics of that sweet ride...  Here are some pics of today's trip...

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
Here are a few more pics...
I also scored a 305 and 5speed out of a 95 Silverado for 300 bones… the motor is going in the Dodge Ratrod project… Picked it up on the way home from picking up the frame… …and here is a pic of the fender from Donnie...

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
Was great to get caught up on you build and new project. Nice haul on the frame, motor and trans. Smiled when I saw the nail welds, wasn't that long ago we were just beginner sparkers
 Hope the rod project goes smoothly for you! Not much time left on that counter. See you next week.
