    I drove about 360 miles one time to go look at an old Trans con U model nose got down there and there was a big chunk missing from the right side somewhere I thought well hell this thing is no better than mine and I drove home but after digging into this one it’s actually a lot worse that one would gave been a lot easier to fix bob

    yeah Joey, I’m still baffled that I’ve been getting so much work done on it after all these years the more i do the more I want to go further for some reason the letters are not looking, right

    Well, for some reason, I felt the need to sand the red to at least the green but the red seems to be very strong paint, so I’m not so sure I have to go through to the green that’s about all I am able to do this go around too much tedious work that’s enough for a little. We’re going to have to start winding down more barbecue tonight. Might be time for a beer. Again, this sanding thing is way more work than I thought.

    I was thinking of drilling out the bolts after you mentioned that I might just chop a hole in the side and put nuts and washers on the back

    I forgot to mention in that last paragraph before Covid. The engine crane was $100 cheaper. Auto spell doesn’t want to work right anymore on this phone.

    And those two rivets at the top or what I believe holds that chunk of metal in place

    We were also talking about that tent trailer we decided it’s easier to fly and get a hotel bob

    Well you know I don’t know about you fellas but Home Depot here rents just about anything engine crane would be the ticket. I’m fixing to buy one shortly myself I am pissed harbor freight wanted 179 now it’s $100 more after.. but they are a lifesaver. He could also use one of those not that much to rent one wheel dolly. Yes, of course that’s the ticket, but as you mentioned. Ca Ching ca Ching and as an individual, how often would you need it?

    I was wondering if you tried watts B model store I thought I saw ads if not, if I were you, I would buy a bunch of sheet metal and just build your own good luck
