rod we have a metal break at our shop, too bad muscatine is about 2hours away from it. We use our 36" on most our street rod/resto projects for patches just fine.

thanks for the compliment, but my truck doesn't look half as good as the quality my boss demands in the paint department, but for having no experience in bodywork when I did it(with Dad from age 9-16)..it turned out pretty well.

I'm sure yours will look great too, I'd love to set ya up with a good bodyshop

Classes as usual... no breaks for me until Thanksgiving... I did have the day Thursday where I didn't have to leave the house, but still had to do homework and study for a test.... Worked all weekend. With the good weather, it was a very busy one...
