Just Checking In

Hi All.Its been awhile since i"ve been online.Been busy with doctors and hospitals.Had so many test run I think I can run some of the machines myself.They still dont know whats wrong.They are going to send me to St Louis for some test there.Maybe they can get me fixed up.OK enough of that stuff.I'm hoping to get my frame painted this week then I can start putting my 48 back together.Got the heads done on my cleveland.Also put in all new seals and gaskets, timing chain, and water pump.It's ready to go back in.Got the front of the frame boxed in.So I'm not far from putting it back together ALRIGHT!!Reamer I'll be needing a Cab Corner soon.Hope you are still making them.Hope everyone is doing well.
Thanks ART
