Yeah I hear that to, along with the nice warm breeze coming thru the fire wall from around the steering column and the clutch rod, not to mension the loose shifter boots around both the trans and t case but I love it. Mmm the smell of burning oil and a rich carb lol!

Good Evening Arizona. Finished the painting & it kicked my butt. Next time I'm calling you Bill.
Now all I have is a re roof. That won't be as hard as the paint I'm sure. The last time I painted this place was 20 years ago so if this paint goes 15 years I most likely won't ever do it again.

Every summer my wife and I tell each other that "we're outta here!". Looks like we are finally done with the heat for awhile. This is the best time of year to live in Arizona.

No it was water base paint. But it was long over due. I used True Values best paint this go around. I guess they are coming out with one better that is a primer/color both.
Bill, are these paints with the primer & color as good as they say? I see Lowe's & Home Depot have them out now.
I'm not sure but lead paints I think were gone in the 70s Bill would know that is his trade. All I know is I'm grateful that the painting is done. I was going to put it off until Spring but I started & just had to complete it. We are having great weather here right now. in the mid 70s with nights in the high 40s. Perfect work weather IMHO.
