Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
Nice work there Don. Progress is a good thing. Hey I was just in that Harbor Freight store this morning. Had a dental appointment at the VA and just hate to pass and not stop at that store even if its just to look around.
Keep up the good work. Wade |

 Got the Shift Knob finished up and the Blanket to be used for a Seat Cover mocked up…   Untitled by Donald Olivo, on FlickrHere's the Shift Knob...   Untitled by Donald Olivo, on FlickrHere it is installed, but the Shift Lever is going to be modified, that's why it remains unpainted thus far...  Untitled by Donald Olivo, on Flickr
