TWM, I honor the memory of your Father with a silent prayer here. My wife lost an uncle over Bremen (M.I.A.), on Thanksgiving Day in 1944, and I don't know his unit but he was a navigator in a B-24. And I'm posting to say that witnessing your projects is like walking into a world class...

That is phenomenal transition, from "Before" to "After". Wow. You are a genius! :clinto::beer:

Then maybe we should start talking in code here:

Nobody sets the bar hight like you do Tinwoodsman; NOBODY. The photos you take of the work on your projects always remind me of one of these clean-room shots. You know, everything just perfect:

Oh my God, TWM; it's all so clean, the assembly looks like one of those shots of a NASA satellite assembly or something, your work standards are phenomenal, awe-inspiring! My favorite shot is the assembly pieces on the bed, I bet that the domestic situation and things between you and Mama get...

What, maybe 15 gallons? And if you drop the transmission into reverse, doesn't the push water automatically become pull water? But: - How do it know!?

I've been trying to figure out what that "sump" is under the driver's seat. I thought maybe it was the battery compartment but the dimensions don't seem right, and there's not enough volume to be the fuel tank (is it?): - What is that area?

Where's all that blue coloring coming from: - Is that just the reflected light off the compressor?

That's excellent work, but that's never a surprise from your projects, TWM. What is the story with your shop floor, around the cabinet saw. I mean it's BRIGHT. I like that! Some kind of shake in the concrete mix? Epoxy? What did you do there?

Is that kind of the no-fail three-step Holy Grail for maximum rust resistant prep: - Ospho+Prep All+Epoxy Primer?

Hey, Mr. zout, you're reminding me of a recipe for home-made cookies I read once where it said: "To make this batch TRULY from scratch, first off, you got to create the Universe". I guess the guy had a point there, you know? TWM could probably do it:

Hey TWM, where do you source something like those (seemingly) new rubber mounts!? Those things got to be rare as the old proverbial hen's teeth, or am I mistaken?

TWM, Your Super Superiorness, you never cease to amaze and inspire: - Mere mortals (like most of us reading your threads) would run screaming from the size of the tasks that YOU tackle without even a blink. You are the Hercules of MV Restoration, and I always bow before your Blinding...

Merry Christmas right back at you. :clinto:

Wow. That always drops out of my mouth when I witness the craft skills of TWM. Wow. And I'll tell you what those are sure enough some fancy a** clamps you got there, Brother.

If you're going to make a bunch of them, I'll get in line too! :jumpin:

Now THAT is a good friend to have. Sweet. I'm going to suggest you at least take him some cookies every Christmas (you know: to keep him on your good side)! :beer:

You must have a pretty serious sheet-metal brake to bend the folds on that sheet: - Can we maybe get a picture of the brake? Please!? :jumpin:

Where did you get that from?

Looking at your most excellent documentation of a most excellent re-build, TWM, and I feel like I'm walking through a world famous art gallery (the Louvre, the Hermitage, or something) and seeing great works of art by all the Masters. And you just throw it all out there like it's nothing...
