Looks really good GB! You deserve a quiet evening and maybe a little more wine.

You're mostly there, got the hard part done anyway.
'Have a lotta children and try to find Jesus on your own'. No, I didn;t google it, and I may have a bit wrong.

It is good that the bell housing was still there waiting for you!

So that song was John Denver? I woulda thought maybe John Prine. I liked them both. Never one for Black Sabbath, Kiss, or Blue Oyster Cult. I was more Joni Mitchell, Gordon Lightfoot and Dan Fogelberg. Square I guess......

When I googled "Blow up your TV, throw away your papers, move to the country, build you a home, eat a lot of peaches." I got this website. "http://www.metrolyrics.com/blow-up-your-tv-lyrics-john-denver.html

Your are right, Songwriters
PRINE, JOHN / KENT, JEFFREY BRADFORD

Yep that's John Prine, who was discovered by Kris Kristofferson, who wrote "Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down", popularized by Johnny Cash who.. oh never mind! Yeah the 50s through 70s had some real diverse sounding artists. If you ever get some time off and have that party GB we'll all bring our guitars and fiddles and play a few good old tunes.

Keep up the great work, it's swell of you to take the time out to show everyone your craftsmanship.

It is my distinct pleasure to bring you these updates. I have waited my whole life to build this thing, but up on this side hill I never really had anyone to share the experience with until I met all of you. The few old truck guys I know on the island are die hard chevy guys and advanced design stuff at that. Gag me with a brake spoon.

Looks like some of our minoritys only you'd need half grown silhouettes with babys because the daughters start shelling them out at 13-14 and still live at home. But you keep the same dad/stepdad

Working at a fever pitch as it's really getting fun now..... The new maple pieces in the last photo will come off for final fitting. The 'panels' are just 1/8" plywood and cardboard for now. The real panels might look like the light mahogany in the upper panel. Not wanting the deep red mahogany contrast or the maple/birch no contrast. I'm a middle child.
