Do you guys think they will consider moving Findlay show back a few weeks so I can get this finished 😂. Welding all day today, hopefully pressure washer Tuesday to get degreaser on, then into inflatable paint booth for primer and paint next weekend if weather cooperates

Looks like its coming along well, its good to have help. The details really slow everything down, but I am just slogging along knocking out one segment at a time on my project (electrical).

Yet another late night in the paint booth tent today, nevermind the brief thunderstorm that about removed the booth from the chat lol. Good first coat of green on. Gotta love the Gillespie coatings paint from my friend in Texas at Rapco this batch we saved on shipping by stopping by when my father in law was delivering a piano to his cousins house. Empty u haul trailer=challenge accepted. Anyway hopefully my tire guys can come through in time to make the show. Hard to load on the trailer on blocks
