Hello to everyone in Georgia...football time??

 

Hello Tim..

 

Bob
I whish mine looked like that

Stephen
That the old age and hard work not agreeing with each other. Rest take take of your back

 

Thanks Chief, and Hugh, it was a lot of work to get done in two days, but very satisfied with the outcome. A little fine wet sanding, and I think it will be fine.

Chief, my issues used to be remedied with a HOT shower, and lay flat on my back. That would allow the muscles to relax, and most times back to work the next day. Hope you feel better soon.

 

Hey! That looks real good, I just finished painting the one I'm working on too and now have a ton of wet sanding to do before polishing..

 

I got my new long long term project today. We found 8.5 acres in Jasper county close to Lake Jackson that we are going to buy. Figure about a year to get it cleared and ready for the house. . Lexie wants about a 1400 -1600 Sq log home

 

Hugh, that's probably easier than moving to Puerto Rico. Good luck with it.

 

Does anybody know what, or where I could find some nutserts. I had three of the nuts that held the hood hinges to the front of the cowl break. You can see two of the holes in the picture I posted yesterday where I punched them out. Any help would be appreciated. Bob

 

Bob
You right about Puerto Rico. Are you talking about this type
45 Piece Threaded Insert Riveter Kit

 

Thanks Hugh, I may have to use these, but I looked at them the other day in the store,and they just don't look beefy enough to hold the hood hinges. I thought that I saw some on a TV program that were set with a bolt, and nut that would collapse the shank. I may have to tack weld the nuts from the outside, or look a little closer under the dash to see if I can get a nut and washer in from the inside.

 

If you can get to them from the inside. You could drill a bigger hole next to them and try a nut clip or spring nut. Or a blind nut. That what Ford used on my spare tire carrier. May be less destructive than tack welding

 

damn man guess i need to get the ball rolling!

 

here yall go. some pics. been busting my *** cleaning the old tennants ****, redoing stuff and organizing mine. dodge needs headgaskets, and ford needs third gear lol

hoping by next week i can have them situated for me to work on and have the rest of the crap removed

 

The place is coming right along Jacob.
Bob try a fasten-all store, they might have what you are looking for.

I had to call in sick today, no sick time so I lost a a day of pay but there is no way I could do anything anyway. Last night for over an hour I had spasm after spasm in my back. The pills they gave me at the hospital did little to nothing to help. After the wife iced it down it finally stopped. I have never hurt so bad in my life.

 

I have been laying around all day alternating between cold packs and heating pad on my back. I am going to take one more day off of work to make sure I am better. The wife went out and got me a brace too.

Hugh the land and log cabin sound wonderful. I always loved log cabins.
