I can already see I would rather have dental surgery without Novocaine than do this liner by myself. A lap liner would have been a ton easier but have to work with what I have. This is going to take a while with just me.

Better you than me on the pool liner. On of the last things we did on our pool before I made it a big hole in the ground was having the liner replaced. When they pulled the old liner out, they found the gunite gone. That was about 5k. Then the skimmer stopped working, I did a work around on that. Came home one day and the filter had something brown running down it. Drained the pool, cut the liner out now it my burn pit.

I redid my sun canopy I use for shade to work on the truck and finally got motivated to straighten the shop up. Accumulating parts for some truck projects.

The wheels look good but are the tires going to throw mud on your nice paint?

This one does't see mud. I'm in the process of building another one for playing in.

You'd be surprised at how many (kids) that will take a nice truck and destroy them.
