I have to get my pics off my phone and loaded to Imgur, which is a total PITA to navigate. I miss the old PhotoBucket for hosting pics.

I never visit forums on my phone, so I'm not 100% sure how it works there... but you can attach images directly to posts! No need to rely on another host which could shut down at any time.

Apologies for this huge attachment -- vBulletin made it twice as large as it actually is.

I agree about pic hosts shutting down. I was just trying to keep from using site resources for pics, unless it doesn't affect anything as far as bandwidth etc.

I'll do some updating now

Last I left off, I was working on the hood gaps adding metal to the sides to close them up. I was living in AZ at the time and working for the railroad. I had enough of the Railroad BS and switched jobs and states. Moved from AZ to the PNW, just outside of Spokane WA. Some people think I'm crazy for leaving the RR, but it's hard to have any kind of life working that job (conductor/engineer). Basically home for 12 hours and gone for two days. 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
So, I left to become a field service technician and do forklift/warehouse equipment repair. 4/10 schedule/40 hours a week. Less money, but at least I have a life back. This was in January 2022.

I had to thrash pretty hard to get the car ready to travel to WA in the middle of winter. I needed to get all of the bare metal covered in primer, put the car together, and pack up all my stuff in a months time, while still working the RR job!

Loading up.



On the trailer. Now to load the inside of the car and get everything secured.




Stopping for fuel, in ID.




Made it to the new home.

If your using your phone Taptalk is a great app that makes it super simple.

Hell, even I figured it out without my daughters help.

Great progress and I am happy to see you were able to fix the paint.

And that stripe concept is awesome

Thank buddy!!
I'm not totally in love with it, but I can live with it. Just something a little different than the norm. When the sun hits the paint they almost completely disappear.
I still have to sand the clear flat, and re-clear it when spring comes back around. I have a few runs and some orange peel to take care of.

Got her out of the booth and into the shop before the weather got too cold. I'm getting too old for this
