I was going to say you should at least have a bruski in your hand, but I remembered you don't do that any more. Have a good 4th.

The only time I get to rest is when I'm asleep.

I am taking a vacation in one more week. Going camping close to home.

I wonder the same thing.

Thanks Alex, I appreciate it.

The kitchen is almost done. Gotta get counter tops and I'm going to put up new crown all the way around.

This is some inlay work I did when we installed the 3/4" hardwood floors a couple years ago.

alexxwing · 07-04-2009, 11:14 PM

man this went from a 65 build thread to a all cars house and shop build thread haha thats great no i just got to get my ass out side and work on that 64

Strodder · 07-05-2009, 10:15 AM

The kitchen is coming out nice Allan. I love the floor.

tiggamonsta · 07-05-2009, 12:31 PM

What, no Chevy Bowtie in the floor. I guess we know who runs that kitchen.

Nice work Alan.

jgh64pkup · 07-05-2009, 12:31 PM

ruffrida2005 · 07-06-2009, 03:39 PM

Everything came from Jegs except the parker fitting and the aeroquip fitting. They might carry it but not sure.

ruffrida2005 · 07-06-2009, 04:12 PM

alright cool. There is a Aeroquip place right next to my house I found!

ruffrida2005 · 07-06-2009, 06:33 PM

Shortbed that's good info and a good price! Thanks

70 Suburban · 07-06-2009, 08:02 PM

when i did my 58 i paid 50 per glass to have them cut.. I think an extra 5 a hole to be drilled. if I wanted non laminated they would cut drill then send out to temper

1964C10 · 07-06-2009, 08:23 PM

Incredible job on the kitchen Alan, I will have to agree with the rest of the posters on here, what else can you do perfect?

Thanks for the part numbers on the fittings, I am adding it to my list of future projects

Thanks, I'm not perfect by no means.

On the PS hoses Bill and Joe had some great info too share about the fitting in the metric pump will unscrew then you could use a standard fitting.

Good score Alan and nice way to use the Miata wheels!

70 Suburban · 07-07-2009, 03:47 PM

those wheels look like watanabi's

daverod · 07-07-2009, 06:49 PM

Allan you might want to check this out if you don't like the price of granite. With your skills I'm sure you could do it yourself.www.buddyrhodes.com/ The pressed finish looks kind like granite. Black with white grout would look cool.

tiggamonsta · 07-07-2009, 08:43 PM

Alan, I did a concrete counter in my old house. It was my first time and I picked the hardest possible way to do it (in place). It came out pretty good, and everyone that came by loved it. I think it cost under a couple hundred bucks to do. The worst was grinding it in the kitchen. That dust went everywhere. Next time I will build a mold and do it outside.

daverod · 07-07-2009, 08:54 PM

The form is the way to go. I did my bath room. It was my first time too. I did the loose fill but if I did it again I would'nt pack it so tight, leave more voids it would have looked better. For the price $100 compaired to $600 for granite I was happy. I would do it again.

Ya I hear ya on the mess part. I did mine in my garage next to my truck. It still has the spatter on it. It won't come off. My thinking is it will help hold the rust together.

daverod · 07-07-2009, 09:04 PM

Sorry about the $hitty pic Allan. My electron microscope is broken.

I think that would be a good color scheme.
