Wife said I can't sell it!!

Yeah, it's me again. My youngest son has his mommas' ear and she said I can't sell my '69. So, I reckon I won't. After all, if momma ain't happy....you know the rest.

So, InLine Tube for the stainless brake lines and ebrake cables. Looking at LMC for a gas tank to relocate. Seems using a Blazer tank isn't the best option...staying with metal, too. Can't see using stainless or aluminum for the tank, tho. Wallet is too thin.

My brake booster and master cylinder have surface rust to deal with. What do you think of media blasting them with walnut hulls? I don't think I want to do it with sand or soda.

Sorry for the waffleing over the past 5 years, but mark "Have a stroke" off of your bucket list.

I proposed on the front of my classic drag boat. There's something she won't let me sell

Re: Wife said I can't sell it!!

I have posted on here several times (pity party) about the issues I was having with the body/paint. Anyway, I just got disenchanted with it. My youngest son wants us to work together on it. His first vehicle was also a '69 C-10 SWB and he wants this one for himself. No problemo, I've told him. But, working on it, also means funding it. So, time to get rid of some "stuff" that I can't take to the grave. So, it's all good....in the long run.
