After work small jobs
After work I just never know what I'll start on... Tonight it was grille bars, front bumper and basic sheet metal trim. I'd been woodworking for 10 hours and didn't need any more sawdust. Then I stumbled into the house and had a beer. Oh wait, I'd already had a couple after work. Is it a grill or a grille?
The over riders on the bumper look upside down to me but they were on like that. From a '37 truck??? Tomorrow I will finish up the bars, paint and install them.

That is a nice looking grille panel! It will be a big improvement over the existing one.

Yes, the rest of the blue bars are on my truck. I had a NOS one for the left side so you got the original. You did a nice job of fixing the middle bar.
I like those bumper guards; not sure why they were upside down. I think that you should keep them on the woodie.

I plan to. The bumper is only on finger tight. Haven't decided what color to paint it, but probably basic black. Did some filling with jb weld on small dents in grille bars at the kitchen table tonight after dinner. Still starting at seven and putting in long days at work. The goal is to pull off this jobsite on Friday afternoon all done. End of month spells payday in my book.....Yay! I ordered a KR Wilson style hub puller today to reward myself.
