Once in awhile that OT truck is not there. Hopefully in a week a different view will be seen. I hope one of these days I will have views as others here. I did not intend to change the theme of this thread and I know there is another thread for this, but I just could not resist

I sent some pics to ya thru the email. They showed what I have left. I was just out there working on it and everyday the hood fit looks better. I am really leaning towards using filler to panel fit. I really feel it will not be greater than 1/8 thick. Those braces really did the trick on the passenger side.

This thread never fails to inspire me!
I WOULD have had my maiden journey in my truck this afternoon, as she has just had her wheel alignment done and I was set to drive her home from the workshop, but the mechanic doing the front end ball joints, control arm bushes etc, wanted me to supply the truck with the fenders off, so I took them off, and then of course, I had to get it towed there and back, and I can't get home from work early enough to fit the fenders up. Damn!
Any day now, she'll be on the road

Last weekend we camped at Pine Grove Furnace state park and went to the National Apple Harvest Festival at South Mountain Fairgrounds.They have a car show, hit and miss engines, tractors, and anything to do with apples. Here's some pictures. Dennis

Great pictures, Dennis. I guess this explains why you weren't home last Sunday.

Hey Dennis,
I'm jealous - you have a real Fall with colors and everything!
Texas just goes from scorched to brown. So..... did you win any prizes in the car show?

Looking good in Pennsylvania.
