Not too bad Pat. My beautiful blond granddaughter is here from college this weekend and Harley and I have been helping her with her FORD pickup. Did a bunch more dent pulling on Mikeys 65. Man, that thing looks like somebody was throwing bricks at the back of the cab for YEARS.........

That thing looks like a porcupine!!!LOL! I'm hoping to have the kick panel patches welded into mine tonight. Then, I can coat the floor and inner firewall, when I get a warm day, or a heater, wichever comes first.

Using the stud gun is so much easier than the old way! I don't even use my hammer and dolly much anymore, even when I can get to the dent easily. It's so much better!
Mikey is getting pumped now that the cab is taking shape. Makes me feel a lot better since I wasn't even sure he was going to live 2 years ago....

Nice of you guys to be helping him out with that. I might go ahead and try the stud gun on a few dents in my cab, that I could get to with the hammer and dolly, just to play iwth it.

Little trick I've learned with the gun. When you get ready to pull with the dents with the puller, when you pull, watch the panel from the side and you can see when the dent comes out flush!
Helping mikey is a no brainer. He is a great friend and when we met almost 20 years ago, he didn't even change his own oil! Now I have him doing things he never dreamed of............

Going well taking this week off aka burning some vacation time and going to try and get something's done if the weather is nice to me. Have some painting to do today and at the end of the week have to pull the header off my 89 so I can figure out what gasket to order.

Morning guys woke up this morning to two extra horses eating hay up in my barn. Neighbors horse somehow got out tried to run them Away from the barn, and they headed for the highway, great. Finally got them back in his field.. The scary thing was they must have moved over here last night, was amazing they weren't hit last night on the road.
