Looks like good winter fun

So Nathan and I went out to Morris' the other day and had a very good, long look (and long chat) about putting that 56 emmie back together. To be honest, I can hardly wait. Well, to tell the truth we talked more about other trucks than the one we came to work on, but o well, we got all winter right? lol. Shes definately going to be a very sharp truck when its all said and done. I bet you its going to be red. I can see that one being a bright shiny red. O ya. So Fom, when are we getting started? New Years Eve? Day? Hopefully everyone comes out to get their hands dirty.

Thanks Chris about the 56 comments.
I was painting it similar to the medium blue metalic it was before the destruction took place. It will be a while before I`m to that stage. I have two red Mustangs, a burgundy Mustang and a burgunday/red Model T. I`m not use about another red one.
After New year`s sounds good, got to get it done, I want to get it back on the road again.

I'll be working all week after Christmas, then in Eston the day after New Years for 4+ days, then four guys from our shop are leaving for two months for various levels of apprentice training... so I'll be either busy or out of town starting after Christmas....
Oh well, now that I'm a Journeyman I'll be making the big bucks... except for that whole thing about "the more you make, the more you pay" and the gov't takes it all

Journeyman Refrigeration Mechanic, it is a very diverse trade.. deals with everything from your home fridge to cryogenics to supermarkets to building A/C, etc. But I prefer to stick to supermarkets and large industrial... such as Safeway, Co-Op, Sobeys, Ice Arenas, PCS mines, and so forth.
