Re: 66 suburban build

The tank swap, lol. Cut the neck off the old tank and went to weld it on the new LMC tank only to realize its time to clean your shop when you can't even find the regulator for your shielding gas. That's an all day project in itself, but I ended up getting the necks swapped out this evening and should have the tank hung after work tomorrow. Wish I would have had time to swing by.
