as did i... but did get a little more work today on the truck since im having to relocate my boost gauge



made me a mounting bracket... for my gauge pod since it was designed for over the rear view mirror..



little test fit...





i for see a visibility issue with that first hole...



yay paint...



decided to paint these back to black since one of the PO either had thinner on their fingers, plaster, or white paint when they touched it and left a thumb print on it... ntm the sun was having fun with it too...



2 coats i think they came out pretty good...



for something advertized as being satin finish.. it came out more glossy to me...



put them back in... think it came out pretty good...

Good morning Jim and Vermont woodchucks and woodchuck imposters. Some very nice fabrication going on there. Very nicely done. Lots of fog here in the hollow. Might be in the 30's tonight, then warming up.

Good morning Shawn. In the 30's?? I saw maybe high 40's as a low. Sounds like you're building your case to convince the wife to snuggle with you tonight. LOL

No need to convince - we like to snuggle. And I'm off to DC tomorrow AM for the rest of the week so that's as good an excuse as any. Gary said cold spots in the 30's - not my idea.
