Welcome from Texas.

There is always hope. Sounds like you have a plan. That K-18 just keeps getting better and better. [thumbzup]

I don't understand why you are on SS or sitting on the porch slurpping beer when you could be down at the shop in 150 degree temps getting the job done. Take one for the team man! :grd:

Squeezed out some time today to clean up the exterior surface of the block for painting. Primed and painted it. the photos do not correctly show the color with is New Ford Gray but I will blame that on my IPhone. Ready to start final assembly once I figure out where all the parts go. :-(

I must apologize for taking too much time. You need to realize that I do not use cans or spray paint. I go out on my property and collect seed pods and then grind them into powder and make my own paint. Unfortunately that takes time. I will try to kick it up a notch.

Not sure I understand the facination with the old pickup cab. I guess I should have started this thread on a Rat Rod forum. :shock:

Work has been at a virtual stand still for weeks with the rain and humidity. Wanted to blast the axles today but too wet. Used the cabinet to blast the valve adjustment cover, timing cover and oil pan. In primer now but soon will get the New Ford Gray. Painted the motor mount plate and the...

Welcome

Just curious..... Did you kill any trees?
