Not going to be able to make the get together, Wife's due date for our second child is the 28th! little girl this time.......this may put a damper on my 53 build? But I did get my frame back from the sand blasting guy in Nesbit yesterday and he did a good job. now I am fitting all the steel for boxing it.

and yes sometimes those children put a damper on those builds...but believe me they are worth it as you already know!
Try to get some self etching epoxy primer on that frame, that'll keep it from flash rusting.

Thanks Barry, I may get out there tomorrow and spray it....one of the guys that wants to come help me weld it all out said to just keep it dry (inside my shop) and that would be ok. I'm still a little lost on what to do on the inside of the frame. maybe box it in four foot sections and use a small roller to get inside?

Good Sunday morning, I'm kinda hoping we're gonna get some rain so it will wash all this pollen away, it doesn't really affect me health wise, just an headache every so often. We had a nice little get together at David's house yesterday, took just a couple of truck pictures, i'll try to post those later. Have a good Sunday.

Thomas has blue on his rockers w/pin stripes. Looks good too. But then his whole paint job is just about as immaculate as Barry's.
