March Madness/Chat and BS thread.

Ok so I am 1 1/2 hrs ahead, but better to get it done now. Before I sleep in, and chat you all up in the wrong month tomorrow morning. lol

Looks like March is here with 6" to 7" of snow and ice on the way.

Everyone drive safe you just have to get out and if not, stay in and stay warm.

Good Morning Everybody!

I am SOOOOOO not ready for March. 19 days until the Man Show set up day. I still have some rust repair and body work to do on Earthquake. The '73 needs to be a completed, restored truck by April 14th, I need to build a trailer and finish the Thunderstang.

....on top of customer's work that keeps getting piled on. I guess it's good to be busy.

Morning everyone. Not sure how much is out there this morning, but I'm getting ready to go out and plow the driveway soon. Maybe I'll go shoot a couple of pictures when I'm done...

Awesome pictures Dave! I would take pictures here, but they'd just show snow with cars here and there.

Thanks Chip. I'm still figuring out the ins and outs of this new-fangled camera & the related image control software. Being color blind doesn't help things any...

Evening All!

No shop stuff today. I woke up sore and then we went to the lawn and garden show at the E-plex. Some cool stuff there, but I was in so much pain by the time we left, I was just about in tears. I did manage to get a few of the vendors interested in the Man Show in a few weeks.

I need to get EQ in the shop this week and fix the roof. I should have enough paint to do the roof. Then I'm going to go around it a few more times and detail it some more so it looks good for the show.

Good Morning Everybody!

I'm going to put the Caddy back together and buff the Honda to get it delivered today. After that, I guess I'll see what I can get in to. I need to get EQ in to fix the roof and passenger side floor pan.
