I have a hard time taking a long lunch. I'm too bad about losing motivation to take long lunches. most of the time if i'm on a roll i just won't eat b/c i will lose all the momentum.. My F-150 has taken a year and a half now mostly due to lack of motivation to work on my own stuff. LoL. Have a good rest of the day Robert.

Very true.Actually the job I'm on is a VERY minimal profit left inthejob. I could just walk away, in the end would be cheaper to do anyways, but that's just not my style

I was backing up a trailer that has the V10 that is going into the 89 F150. Paying attention to the trailer and not the deck.Good news is that the motor/tranny are one step closer to their future home.<table style="border: medium none; font-family: Myriad,Helvetica,Verdana,sans-serif;" border="0" width="1024"><tbody><tr><td colspan="2" style="border: medium none;"><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" allownetworking="all" src="http://w765.photobucket.com/flash/tagWidget.swf?mediaURL=aHR0cDovL2k3NjUucGhvdG9idWN rZXQuY29tL2FsYnVtcy94eDI5MS93b3VkaWVpbnR4L0lNR18xM Tg1LmpwZw%3D%3D" width="1024" height="768"></td></tr></tbody></table>

you should be able to pop the dent mostly out from the inside with a nice smack, then a little rubbing compound and wax and it should look pretty good again depending on how bad it may have creased the metal.. it looks like it could be popped out.
