Alright gents, I'm off to the shop.

Jeff if you want to see the worlds worst General Lee replica, swing by the shop today. I have a '70 Charger with a massive fuel leak. I got the leak fixed, but there's no saving the paint job. *spoiler alert* It was painted with rustoleum safety orange spray paint. ....and it doesn't get any better from there.

I saw a beautiful General in town yesterday, I'm guessing it was there for the route 66 stuff. Nice car.

Well, heck. I never made it to the shop today, but I got errands run, the pop up delivered, and some bills paid. Not bad for a Sunday, I guess. That just means I'll have to hit it hard tomorrow morning.

Well I have discovered a trick to the electrolysis don't use all thread. I had a scrap piece of 3/4" all thread I used and it is harder to clean than a flat piece would have only way to clean it is to wire wheel it every time

Off to another wonderful day at the office...

I changed out the back window on the '87 to a much better looking one I picked up. Does anyone need a beat up but functional rear window that fits the '80 - '96 trucks? If so the old one is available for the low, low price of FREE! I hate to just toss it in the dumpster when someone could use it to keep the rain out...

RC they call it the sacrificial electrode because it gets eroded during the process.

If some one has a rear slider for a bump I would be willing to drive for that.

Morning folks, I have a extra slider out of the red 79, it needs a dvrs side glass unless you are good with the plexi glass that is in it. It is free too BTW! Might fit a bump?
